Nestled in the heart of Rajasthan, this centuries-old loom represents more than machinery — it stands as a beating archive of tradition, craft, and identity.

200-year-old loom

For seven generations, master weaver Shyamji has preserved its rhythm. Each piece requires up to 27 hours of focused work. The loom's wooden frame creaks with every pass, but its precision never falters.

The Rhythm of Generations

Shyamji learned from his father, who learned from his grandfather. "This loom has seen more winters than I can count," he says. Every thread carries memory. This loom does not simply produce fabric — it holds lineage stitched into time.

Why It Matters

In an age of machines, this 200-year-old relic produces textures no modern loom can replicate. The subtle irregularities in the weave create depth and character that define Snehvastra's signature tactility.

Each garment from this loom carries a story — not just of craft, but of unbroken continuity across two centuries.
