Classic Hand Dyed Slub Linen Blue Dupatta

What shade is this exactly?

It is a deep peacock teal that sits between blue and green, with faint pale butis and a silvery striped band at the hem. Screens show teal a little differently, so the shade may look slightly bluer or greener in person, and each hand-dyed piece varies a little.

Which kurta colours go with peacock teal?

Teal is rich enough to pair with warm colours: mustard, coral, rust and maroon all look good with it. For a calmer look, wear it over white, cream or soft pink. Silver jewellery picks up the hem band nicely.

What kind of days is this dupatta suited to?

Workdays come first: it adds colour to a plain office kurta without looking fussy. It is also a good summer travel companion, light and breathable, and simple enough for everyday wear around town or at home.

Does the slub texture show on this piece?

Yes, the thick-and-thin threads give a gentle unevenness across the surface, and the soft sheen makes it easier to see as the light moves. It reads as natural texture, which is the rustic charm of slub linen.

How should I care for it?

Hand wash gently with a mild detergent and wash it separately, as it is hand-dyed. Press out the water, don't wring, and dry it flat or on a line in the shade. Rich shades like teal keep their depth longer this way.
