Bukhara Blossom Tunic - Caftan

Inspired by the ancient city of Bukhara, a cultural treasure along the Silk Road, the "Bukhara Blossom Caftan" merges tradition with modern elegance. Crafted from soft cotton, this caftan features an eye-catching ikat design in rich indigo and vibrant magenta hues, echoing the artistic heritage of Uzbekistan. Its relaxed fit and breathable fabric make it a versatile choice for lounge or resort wear.

Hand-dyed and handmade by talented artisans in Uzbekistan. The name ikat is of Indonesian origin and means 'to tie or bind'.  In Uzbekistan, the local name for ikat comes from the Farsi word 'abr', which means 'cloud', as the patterns on the fabrics often resemble clouds floating in the sky. Ikat is a resist-dye weaving process, where bundles of unwoven threads always re bound tightly and intricately in certain places to prevent the dye from adhering to those areas, and hand-dyed, often by ikat masters. The dyed threads are then threaded onto the loom to be woven into colorful and unique ikat fabrics.
