If you believe in a zero-waste philosophy, have an appreciation for handmade, and wouldn’t mind wearing pieces that are a bit flawed (because aren’t we all?), our IMPERFECTS are for you.

A running thread, a stripe that overlaps another, a stain, a stitch less — to celebrate the uniqueness of these pieces and the people who handcraft them with passion, we are offering these handmade imperfects at markdown prices.

Our Imperfects are still the same in quality as our regular priced Cape and won’t wear out sooner. However, what makes these Capes different is that they have highly noticeable irregularities, such as patches with an incorrect weave or a colour difference when compared to the original design.

One Size: This versatile, one-size, sustainable wool Poncho Cape can be worn in 15 ways and more, making a stylish statement each time and every way in which you drape it. With exquisite and intricate hand detailing and finishing, this unbelievably multifunctional cape is sure to make heads turn. A meaningful gift to yourself and your loved ones.

Can I/others around me see the inconsistencies?

Yes, most of these inconsistencies are easily visible as they could be in the front of your Cape or larger in size than what we typically consider a ‘regular irregularity’. A long stripe running down the front, for example, or a block of extra overlapping yarns will be visible but your Cape will still be good for many seasons and years of wear.

Why should I buy these?

If you believe in a zero-waste philosophy, have an appreciation for handcrafted pieces and wouldn’t mind wearing pieces that are a bit flawed (because aren’t we all?), our imperfects are for you.

What if they get worn out sooner?

No, our imperfects are still the same in quality as our regular priced Cape and won’t wear out sooner. What makes these Capes different is that they have highly noticeable irregularities, such as patches with an incorrect weave or a colour difference when compared to the original design.

Why don’t you sell them as regular pieces if the inconsistencies are so small/not visible?

Technically, we could. But as a brand we are transparent about our processes and pieces.

Can you show me the exact inconsistencies in the piece I order?

No, we cannot individually send you photos as that’s logistically not possible. However, every product description includes some general pictures that will give you an overall idea.

No Waste: The skillful positioning of the free-size slit armholes give this cape the multi-styling options and also make it a completely zero waste product.

Design x Craft: The clean and modern European design blends beautifully with the artisanal handloom process to make this cape our signature accessory.

Small Batch Production: Individually handmade by the artisans at Dev Bhumi, producing in small batches ensures that every piece is unique and one-of-a-kind. Dyed using toxic-free colours in a vibrant and fashion friendly palette, this cape is guaranteed to be your wardrobe essential for years to come.

Julahas maakt heeft een collectie van mooie, eerlijke producten die zij samen met Indiase ambachtslieden maken.

Eerlijk geproduceerd: de items worden handgemaakt in India, door ambachtslieden die werken via een NGO, via een FairTrade organisatie, of die onafhankelijk zijn. Julahas bezoekt deze partners 3-4 keer per jaar. Voordat ze aan het werk gingen, heeft Julahas de tijd genomen om het productieproces van de ambachtslieden goed te begrijpen. Ze vinden het bij een samenwerking erg belangrijk dat de waarden op het gebied van inclusiviteit, waardigheid en diversiteit gedeeld worden.

Milieuvriendelijk: Julahas werkt met wol en katoen. Deze worden op verantwoorde wijze ingekocht bij lokale, door de overheid goedgekeurde gemeenschappen in de regio's waar zij produceren. Sommige van deze kleine leveranciers zijn biologisch gecertificeerd of werken in relatie met de boerengemeenschappen zodat de hele productieketen met elkaar verbonden is. Zo kunnen boer en wever ook van elkaar profiteren.

Goed doel: het merk plant een boom voor elke aankoop die gedaan wordt. 

Steunt de lokale bevolking: Julahas werkt met oude ambachten en gemeenschappen die anders zouden verdwijnen. India heeft 7 miljoen ambachtslieden, maar velen van hen worden bedreigd door industrialisatie. Gemeenschappen vallen uiteen omdat familieleden niet meer aan handweefgetouwen willen werken. Dus door eerlijk en regelmatig werk aan te bieden, behouden ze niet alleen het ambacht, maar laten ze ook zien dat het mogelijk is om een goed inkomen te verdienen terwijl je bij je familie blijft.
