It is executed on layers of vintage sarees that are stitched together with hand-done running stitches.   2. Dabu printing is an ancient mud-resist block printing technique from Rajasthan, where artisans apply a hand-mixed mud paste to fabric before dyeing it with natural indigo and earthy pigments. The mud resists the dye, revealing intricate patterns that carry the beauty of slow, generational craftsmanship.     DETAILS: Spread collar Concealed zipper  YKK® Zip closure Two welt pockets   Lined with cotton slub Barrel cuffs Locker loop Hand-done Kantha (Boro/sashiko) Dabu hand-block printed  Stitched with the highest-quality Gütermann® threads     INDIGO & WHITE  100% COTTON  HANDMADE IN BENGAL, INDIA
