The loom is a pit loom, sunk into the floor so the weaver works with the treadles below. Every pick of weft goes in by hand, and a dobby sets the buti and the border on body, border and pallu alike. Nothing we sell is machine-woven, and the weaver confirms each piece off the loom.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eExpect the small unevennesses that hand weaving leaves behind.
