Aavaran Applique Double Bedsheet Lilac Purple

What motifs are on the Aavaran bedsheet?

Tonal appliqué forms large floral medallions that repeat across the bed in an all-over jaal. The medallions are big enough to read clearly from across the room, while the tone-on-tone colouring keeps the overall look soft.

How does the colour of the appliqué work with the base?

The appliqué is in mauve over a pastel lilac base, a close, tonal pairing. Instead of strong contrast, you get gentle depth, with the medallions showing as a slightly deeper shade, which gives the bed a calm, layered look.

Who are the artisans behind it?

It comes from Barmer, where a women's self-help group makes it under the guidance of master artisan Babulal. Each motif is cut and hand-stitched onto the cotton, so the bedsheet carries their handwork throughout.

What washing method do you recommend?

We recommend dry cleaning. If you need to wash it at home, hand wash gently with a mild detergent, keep it apart from other clothes in the wash, and dry it in the shade.

Will the medallions sit exactly where they do in the photos?

The overall design and colour will be similar, but placement and patches can vary slightly, because each piece is made by hand and the same patches are extremely hard to find every time. Those small differences make your bedsheet one of a kind.

Is customisation possible?

Yes, the bedsheet can be customised at an additional cost. Each piece is handcrafted in Barmer by a women's self-help group, so slight irregularities and small variations in the patches are a natural part of the handwork.
