The Kala Cotton Lunch Napkin
RAIN-FED: Kutch drylands · No irrigation, no chemical inputs
Handspun, handwoven Kala Cotton from Kutch, cut and sewn in our Guelph studio.
Kala Cotton (Gossypium herbaceum) is a rain-fed heirloom cotton grown in the arid Kutch region of Gujarat. Short-stapled and spun close to the plant, it makes a cloth with quiet body that settles and softens with each wash.
Designed for everyday meals, casual hosting, and thoughtful gifting. Sold individually, so you can build a set slowly or mix naturally. Small enough to be practical on the table or in a lunchbox, substantial enough to read as considered. Finished by hand with a double-fold hem that stands up to everyday use and wash.
Handwoven in Shinay Vishal’s studio in Kutch, Gujarat, India. Cut and sewn in our studio in Guelph, Ontario.
