RANCHI HAND LOOMED SHEER SILK
A luminous hand-loomed natural silk sheer with distinctive vertical and horizontal raised ribs.
The Ranchi Collection
Ranchi is a natural silk sheer distinguished by vertical and horizontal raised ribs that create a subtle geometric structure across the cloth. Its open, luminous quality allows light to pass through the textile, revealing the texture and character of the hand-loomed silk.
Hand loomed in northeastern India near Bihar, Ranchi belongs to a textile tradition that has endured for centuries, with designs that continue to be used for both clothing and the home. Subtle irregularities in the weave reveal the hand of the artisan and give the textile its individual character.
Particularly beautiful at the window, Ranchi transforms as light moves through its sheer silk, bringing the raised ribs, natural texture and character of the fiber into greater relief.

Hand Looms Create the World's Most Extraordinary Textiles
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.
Ranchi 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.
