HAND-BLOCK PRINTING with ALL-NATURAL VEGETABLE DYES Preserving Ancient Art & Traditions... We all here at SHILPA RATHI believe in the traditions & the tremendous richness they add to our life! Sure... all of us here are tech-savvy, but we make it a point that each month, we pull out our favorite Hand-made Paper note-cards & hand-write a note to the little ones back home we so care about! There is something SO SPECIAL about a Hand-written Note! And just like that, there is something very SPECIAL in a fabric that has been either HAND-PRINTED or HAND-WOVEN, preserving the traditional art from ancient times. If you were to hold one of “SHILPA RATHI” Hand-Crafted linen, next to the mass produced, machine made fabric, you’d exactly know how our high quality, all natural hand-crafted bed linens makes you want to HOLD ON to them! Why Use Vegetable Dyes Over Chemical Dyes? On average, we spend 8 hours per day in direct contact with our bed-sheets, pillows & quilts. Natural fabrics & vegetable dyes eliminate any risk of chemicals affecting our skin & allow our precious skin to breathe better & feel better. With our stylish, yet so eco-friendly, “SHILPA RATHI” products, not only you’d support the artisan community, you will also sleep sounder knowing that you are helping sustain Mother Earth & precious YOU by choosing true “green” products!
“SIENNA” COLLECTION: HAND-WOVEN LINENS Exclusively woven on traditional hand-looms! August 2010, at the launch of “SHILPA RATHI”, we proudly presented our “WILD INDIGO” Collection, boasting all-natural materials such as 100% Vegetable Dyes, Pure cotton while preserving the ancient art of Hand-Block printing, “Kalamkari”. Soon after that, we realized that with us, there were a lot of consumer minds, sharing the same passion for these handcrafted, stylish yet so eco-friendly products. They were simply waiting for the right products to be able to express their passion! And, that led us to our gorgeous “SIENNA” Collection, celebrating another traditional art, weaving textiles on handlooms! It is perhaps the most ancient art of textile weaving mankind has known. Yes, it won’t be as fast as the machine-made, mass-produced fabrics but it sure does not waste our important resources such as Electricity. All of our hand-woven linens are woven using traditional techniques & handlooms leaving no carbon footprint behind. Go “Sienna”!
Whether it is a Home-made Whoopie Pie or a Hand-written Notecard, whether it is our “Wild Indigo” Hand-printed collection or our Hand-woven “Sienna” Collection... As long as, it is a quality-handcrafted product, we here at SHILPA RATHI, Love it, Enjoy it, Promote it!
