BHAGALPORE · UNITED KINGDOM

Made in the city that clothed the Empire.

For 200 years, British merchants traded Bhagalpur silk as the most prized textile from India. Now you can commission it directly from the source.

The merchants always knew.

When the East India Company documented the textiles of Bengal in the 18th century, Bhagalpur silk was listed separately from all others. Not as 'Indian silk' — but by name. The merchants knew. The merchants always knew.

What Liberty of London called 'Indian wild silk' in its early catalogues, what Fortnum & Mason wrapped gifts in for Victorian buyers, came from Bhagalpur. The tradition that served the empire now serves the discerning — directly, without middlemen, at the source.

Three works. Each unrepeatable.

Ten pieces made per month. No exceptions.
