Made By: Direct from the looms of Lovi Toli from Nagaland. Lovi learned to weave at a young age and this is an integral part of her livelihood. Pushing herself to conserve, create and excel, Lovi believes that it is important to conserve traditional and cultural pride. We collaborated with Lovi to design a collection of black and white Naga scarves which were crafted beautifully by her and her team of about 18 women weavers.

Naga Textiles: Home to sixteen indigenous tribes, textile from Northeast Indian state of Nagaland are famous for their striking geometric patterns, interesting color combinations and mythological and cultural symbolism. The textiles are traditionally woven by women on backstrap tension looms, where the warp is attached to the body of the weaver and the stretched legs create the tension needed to weave the yarn. Eye catching geometric motifs are used to display one’s tribal allegiance. These looms produce a somewhat thick and textural fabric that makes these textiles extraordinary in our opinion.
