ALTITUDE: 0-100 METRES · Gujarat, Rann of Kutch
The Kala Cotton Table Runner in Undyed Ivory
$90.00 CAD
RAIN-FED: Kutch drylands · No irrigation, no chemical inputs
Handspun, handwoven Kala Cotton (Gossypium herbaceum) from Kutch, cut and sewn in our Guelph studio.
Left undyed, the cloth carries flecks of cotton seed through the weave; the fibre spun close to the plant rather than combed smooth. The structure is a soft herringbone: a fine diagonal that gives the runner body and a fluid, settled drape without the hard creasing linen is known for. Kala Cotton is a rainfed, short-stapled indigenous variety with a dense hand that only softens with washing.
Ivory sits quietly against wood, stone, and glazed ceramic. A runner that reads considered rather than fussy, and holds up to daily use.
