Buddhist Bracelets
Buddhist prayer bracelets handcrafted in Kyoto by makers with centuries of continuous practice — Kobori Bugutsu, established 1775, and Yasuda Nenju Ten, established 1683. Each bracelet is composed of 108 beads.
Soft Furnishings
Kantha quilts, blankets, throws, and cushions made with fine handloomed textiles from India and around the world. The kantha pieces are designed by AtelierOM and made in collaboration with a local women's collective, India, using layers of cotton stitched together with a traditional running stitch. Cushions are fabricated by Bee, Bark & Moss in Carmel using AtelierOM block-printed and naturally dyed textiles. Each piece is selected for quality of material, weave, and craft.
Other conventional fabrics such as outdoor can be used on request.
