Afsaneh – Himroo Silk, Revival Weave of Maharashtra

Himroo Silk ~
Once favoured by Mughal royalty, this revival weave from Aurangabad, Maharashtra, takes its name from the Persian Hum-Roo meaning “like silk,” celebrating its velvety sheen and regal elegance. Its motifs draw from Persian art and historic architecture, from minarets to blooming gardens, each pattern reflecting a rich cultural fusion preserved through generations.

Today, talented artisans are reviving this heritage craft with devotion, safeguarding techniques that were once on the brink of fading away.

Wrapped in Himroo, you wear a museum of heritage that gracefully moves.
