The Michelia nilagirica, endemic to the Nilgiris, is block printed along one edge of this stole in sage and cream. Toda embroidery runs alongside — dense, intricate, worked in red and navy by our Toda women artisans. Together they form a single edge, flower and thread in conversation.
Crafted from custom-woven fine linen, the fabric is light, airy and fluid, draping beautifully against the body.
This piece is part of Nilgiri Flora · Three Flowers — our first exploration of block print and Toda embroidery meeting in cloth, two crafts brought together for the first time by these mountains.
