About Meros

Meros means inheritance

Every piece here starts with meros — Uzbek for inheritance — cut from handwoven atlas ikat silk and carried from Uzbekistan into a small studio in New Jersey.

The Craft

Every color starts as a knot

Abrbandi, the resist-dye process behind atlas ikat, binds and dyes each thread before it's ever woven — that's where the feathered edge of color comes from.

Explore the craft
  1. Bind

    Threads are bound in tight sections that will resist the dye.

  2. Dye

    Each bound section passes through a sequence of dye baths.

  3. Weave

    The dyed threads are woven, and the pattern finally appears.

Custom Orders

Wedding or event piece? Let's talk.

The Baska skirt started as a custom order — so have most of the wedding and event pieces made here. Bring a date, a budget, and a color in mind.
