Believed to bring good fortune, Bandhani sarees are still worn by brides in Western India. This comfortingly thick handmade Indian throw is the perfect accent piece anywhere you need a layer of texture and warmth.

To create the simple yet striking design, artisans employ ancient tie-dye techniques. Sections of the fabric are tightly tied with thread to create numerous dots before dipping into vats of colorful dye. The tied knots are then opened, forming a delightful pattern of white dots against the colored background. It’s an enduring family trade - the men do the dyeing while the women painstakingly tie each pin-head sized dot.

A chic twist on tie-dye, this pattern complements both traditional and contemporary settings.
