Quality and Craftsmanship
Our commitment to quality leads us to use high-quality, natural raw materials and organic processes. We create soft, breathable handwoven fabrics like cotton, muslin, cotton silk, silk, organza, and linen, which are then fashioned into fluid, relaxed, and contemporary shapes. While the majority of our textiles are handloom, we also develop natural fabrics on small-scale automated looms, allowing us to scale traditional methods.

Intricate Craftsmanship
Jamdani is a delicate form of loom embroidery, featuring intricate, opaque motifs woven onto a fine muslin base. This handwoven muslin, made from very fine, high-count yarns, is known for its soft and tender touch. Craftsmen skillfully interlace geometric motifs into the fabric without any loom attachments, a process that is labor and time-intensive.

Artisanal Techniques
Our Chanderi fabrics are all-natural and printed using the slow process of hand block printing by skilled artisans from Rajasthan.
HAND BLOCK PRINTING
Traditional Process
Hand block printing involves carving designs into wooden blocks, dipping them in dye, and hand-printing the designs onto fabric. This painstaking process requires meticulous attention to detail to achieve harmonious colors and consistent results.
Modern Innovation
Buna has contemporized this traditional art form by creating new illustrations, skillfully reproducing them on small wooden block prints, and converting them to pigment in translucent shades. This lends our fabrics a unique watercolor effect.
