Amber is the colour of Kashmir in October — the moment the chinar trees begin to turn and the valley fills with warm light that has no equivalent anywhere else. Mint green against amber is not an obvious combination. It is the colour of new growth pushing through warm earth, of spring arriving before autumn has fully finished. The Novbahar Amber Co-ord Set with Mint Green Embroidery holds both seasons in the same piece — warm and cool, grounded and fresh, unhurried and alive.

Part of the Novbahar 2026 Collection by KashmirPheran — our first collection of Kashmiri Aari embroidery co-ord sets designed by artisans rooted in the Kashmir Valley — this is the piece that surprises you. Most people do not expect amber and mint to work. Then they see it.

Made in Ruby Cotton — lightweight and breathable, carrying the warmth of amber without weight. The mint green Kashmiri Aari vine motif embroidery runs across the V-neckline, three-quarter sleeves, side panels of the tunic, hemline, and along the pants — a vine placement that feels botanical, as though the embroidery is growing across the fabric rather than placed upon it. The combination of warm amber and cool mint creates a visual balance that is rare in ethnic wear — this is not a piece that looks like anything else in the Novbahar Collection, or in the market.

The silhouette is a straight-cut tunic with side slits at the thigh, paired with matching straight pants. The V-neckline is defined and clean. Three-quarter sleeves keep the look effortless in warm weather. Relaxed, structured, and true-to-size.

How to Style

For everyday workwear — pair with tan or cognac pointed flats, a structured leather tote in tan or brown, and small gold studs. Amber reads as a warm neutral in professional settings — the mint green embroidery gives it just enough distinction to be memorable without being distracting. The most understated way to wear this piece.

For a casual summer outing — wear with white sneakers, a woven rattan tote, and small gold hoop earrings. Amber and mint in natural outdoor light is one of the best combinations in the collection for photography — warm and cool tones balance each other against almost any background.

For a festive daytime occasion — style with gold jhumkas, an amber or gold potli bag, and tan or gold kolhapuris. The vine motif embroidery running across the side panels gives this piece a completeness that makes it feel dressed for celebration without needing heavy jewellery to justify it.

About the Craft & the Artisans

Vine motifs in Kashmiri Aari embroidery are among the oldest design elements in the craft's vocabulary — drawn from the valley's natural landscape of climbing plants, wildflower stems, and the flowing lines of the Jhelum river. Placing vine motifs in mint green on an amber ground reflects an artisan's understanding of how botanical imagery behaves across warm-toned fabric — the coolness of the mint makes the vine feel alive against the warmth of the amber in a way that floral motifs alone cannot achieve. The craft takes its name from the aari, a fine hooked needle historically used to draw thread through fabric in continuous chain-stitch loops.

The motifs on every piece in the Novbahar Collection were designed by artisans based in the Kashmir Valley — craftspeople carrying this design and botanical knowledge forward across generations. The embroidery is produced in Kashmir and each co-ord set is stitched and finished there — ensuring the creative and economic value of this craft stays rooted in the community that created it.

At KashmirPheran, we believe Kashmiri craft belongs in a modern wardrobe — worn in every season, for every reason. The Novbahar 2026 Collection is our contribution to that.
