A green borrowed from old Bhagalpur gardens.
Pista — the soft, dusty green of pistachio and old garden walls — is one of the gentler colors to come off this loom. Three stoles carry it, each one 100% handwoven silk, finished entirely by hand in Bhagalpur.
It is an easy color to live with: warm in low light, quiet against most skin tones, unmistakably handwoven up close.
