Right when we thought we’d seen all that Shankar Market had to offer, we stumbled upon this shop and boy, were we excited! They had some of the most gorgeous handloom textiles we’ve ever seen.
Right from Pochampally ikat {priced between INR 175 – 1,000 per metre} and vegetable-dyed kalamkari {INR 1,250 per metre}, to Shibori fabric from Kutch {INR 1,250 per metre}, khadi {INR 225 per metre}, and south cotton border fabric {INR 250 per metre}, everything here had a certain quality that made it stand apart.
Run by a husband-wife duo, both of whom have a background in fashion, Gamthi’s selection of fabric had a little something rather unique about it.
PS: They even stitch suits, skirts, blouses, and more.
Where: Shop No. 47, Shankar Market
