Description
In excellent condition; Label: " $15 - khadi has transformed itself from the simple home-spun, hand-woven fabric that for centuries endowed its maker with self-sufficiency and respect. During India's struggle for independence, khadi became a symbol of self-reliance against colonization and industrialization - a fabric of resistance. Continually renewing itself, the fabric is now a high value "handicraft" textile, seeking renewed contemporary meaning. This khadi scarf is a symbol of that effort. Care instructions: first wash dry clean. Then, gentle wash in cold water. For further enquiries, please contact ansuma@vsnl.net or +91 (022) 660 9019"
