Turquoise sprigs repeat over maroon, closed by angular geometric bands.

Why this piece

  • Turquoise on maroon is a jewel pairing, not the safe tonal contrast most maroon sets use.
  • Geometric key-style bands finish the ends, so the length arrives with its borders built in.
  • Opaque silk at 600-650 g for the three pieces - deep in colour, light to wear.

The print

Small stylised botanical motifs run in a steady all-over repeat across the maroon, with touches of yellow and dark blue picked out inside them. The ends are closed by linear geometric bands in a repeating key pattern, which gives the set a clean architectural finish rather than a floral one.

Wearing it

Maroon is the reliable festive and formal shade, and the turquoise stops it looking heavy - good for evening functions, and equally at home on a formal office day with the bottom kept plain. Use the geometric bands as the kurta hem. Genuine hand block printing on katan silk from Bhagalpur is unusual: the craft is normally sold on cotton, and katan normally arrives woven. Block printed by hand, and still dispatched the next working day.

The details

  • Top: 2.5 m, 44-45 inches wide

A geometric band is where hand printing shows most honestly - the repeat breathes, and the corners are set by eye rather than by machine.
