Textile production

Susy working closely with the factory owners in India

We partner directly with master artisans in India and Nepal to bring Pilgrim Waters’ unique textile collections to life. By working side-by-side with these generational experts on-site in their workshops, we blend our modern design aesthetic with their exquisite, time-honored handcraft skills. Susy’s large-scale original artwork and meticulous attention to detail result in truly distinct, small-batch scarves, apparel, and throws.

Susy carefully working with artisans in Nepal on a full-scale transparency used in the printing processes in Nepal. Two additional images of weaving and printing Being in the factory and engaging in the production is the only way to fully comprehend what it takes to create the final product. At each stage of production, master weavers, printers, and finishers are employed. It is the firsthand experience which informs our modern design aesthetic. With a love of natural materials and working side-by-side with the local professionals, we are able to blend our modern aesthetic with their handcrafted artisanal skills.

We know that our artisans are the core of our business. PilgrimWaters is not a fast fashion trend, but rather the rediscovering of a sustainable design and value system. Through our combined skills, we are endeavoring to reconnect our design sensibility to the modern day.
