Ara reveals the quieter beauty of undyed natural silk. Hand loomed in northeastern India near Bihar, its finely textured surface and subtle shifts in tone create a textile that feels both refined and distinctly organic.
Because the silk remains undyed, variations in the fiber and its harvest become part of the textile itself. Soft ivory, flax and warm natural tones move gently across the cloth, while subtle irregularities in the weave reveal the hand of the artisan and make every piece unique.
Textiles of this tradition have been hand loomed in the region for centuries, with designs that continue to be used for both clothing and the home. Ara brings that enduring textile tradition to the bed in an understated and beautifully tactile natural silk.
For bedding, Ara is offered in two distinctive constructions: Hand Tufted, which adds soft dimension to the surface of the silk, and Geometric Quilting, which introduces a more structured pattern and texture.

In the beginning, every textile in the world was made by hand.
Natural fibers were grown, harvested, spun, and woven by artisans, each piece reflecting the character of the people who created it.
Ara honors that tradition today. Woven entirely by hand in India by artisans with whom ANICHINI has partnered for decades, it preserves a level of texture, nuance, and authenticity that modern manufacturing simply cannot duplicate.
The subtle variations found in every piece are the unmistakable signature of the hand loom—beautiful reminders that each textile is created by human hands, not machines.
