About

A finely woven handloom textile from Manipur made using indigenous Kabrang cotton, valued for its light, breathable texture and geometric patterns rooted in Meitei weaving tradition.

Did you know? Moirang, the textile's home town, is also historically significant as the site where the Indian National Army first raised the tricolour on Indian soil in 1944 — the craft and that history share the same small town.
