A woven expression of winter’s quietude, this stole’s soft, plain- bodied weave mirrors the calm through which black-capped chickadees take flight. Minimal and elegant, its borders trace geometric terrain patterns across a monochromatic winterscape.

Colour: Mustard Yellow

Fabric: Pure silk in the warp and Pashmina wool in the weft
-
Technique:An enduring Kadwa weave and Meenakari. The elaborate and laborious Kadwa (Kadhua) technique involves hand-weaving each motif separately. It takes longer on the handloom, but it makes a more robust pattern that stands out on the fabric. Meenakari involves the painstaking addition of supplementary coloured resham threads during the hand-weaving process.

Speciality: This fabric has been handwoven in the twill weave to achieve a supple drape; even in its texture, strength, and insulation. A singular creation that reimagines traditional Banarasi weaves.
- Collection Note: Tilfi’s Silk Wool collection extends Banarasi into new material terrain, evoking the hush of frost-kissed branches, the flight of birds across open skies, and the gentle geometry of snow-laden landscapes. Woven with the finest Pashmina yarn and pure silk, the textile finds a poised balance between softness and structure. Through meticulous Kadhua craftsmanship, the collection becomes a study in muted winter minimalism, where tradition evolves by deliberate design. Composed in subtle contrasts, its narrative is defined as much by absence and stillness as by abundance and vibrancy.
