An YVES AUTHENTICS Surprise!
We are proud to be the exclusive authorized supplier of LILA WEAVER BOHEMIA’s high-frequency fabrics and adornments, a collection that embodies authenticity, craftsmanship, and spiritual resonance.
LILA WEAVER BOHEMIA is founded and curated by Jai Teg Kaur, a devoted spiritual seeker initiated as a Saint-Warrior in the revered city of Sri Anandpur Sahib, the city of spiritual bliss, in Punjab, India. Following a rare and authentic spiritual path, Jaiteg personally sources handmade garments from the remote regions of Northern India and Nepal. Her journey takes her deep into the Himalayas, where she collaborates directly with skilled artisans – the craftsmen and craftswomen who delicately hand-stitch and embroider exquisite woolen pashminas, many originating from the famous Kashmiri tradition of the Kani Shawl.

By bypassing middlemen and working directly with village artisans, Jaiteg ensures that each piece is both ethically sourced and truly one-of-a-kind. Most of these items are acquired during her sacred pilgrimages, some of which involve long journeys on foot to remote Buddhist monasteries, nestled among the mountain peaks of the Kathmandu Valley.
The Sherpa people live high up in the mountains of Nepal, “because it is closer to heaven,” craft intricate, exceptional items in their peaceful, loving communities. From woodcarving, metal craft, pottery, thangka painting, and weaving to paper making, these creations reflect the centuries-old traditions passed down through generations, embodying the soul of Nepali culture and craftsmanship.
Jaiteg’s passion lies in discovering and supporting small, independent artisans – from single-shop owners to sidewalk creators she meets during her pilgrimages. Her discerning eye for quality and authenticity ensures that each piece reflects a personal connection to the craftsperson behind it.
Some of the rare items are bought directly from village craftsmen and craftswomen, avoiding middlemen and finding the true source of the items.
At YVES AUTHENTICS, we pride ourselves on offering garments and textiles that are not mass-produced. None of our items come from large factories; instead, we honor the traditions and values of family-run businesses where honesty, integrity, and the respect for craftsmanship are at the core. These values, deeply rooted in Jaiteg’s Sikh faith, ensure that the skills passed down through generations support not only the artisans but their families as well.
Many of the pieces we offer are collector’s items, destined to become treasured heirlooms passed down through generations. Each piece is personally sourced by Jaiteg Kaur, and our collections are carefully curated with limited availability—no more than five of any item (with different patterns), and often only one, ensuring the rarity and uniqueness of each piece.
We are honored to house these garments and treasures, imbued with the high frequency of the pure souls who create them.
From their hands to yours, each item carries a warmth, love, and generosity that embodies the blessings of the East—values often lost in the modern world.
Here in Greyton, we bring these rare Eastern crafts to you, reconnecting you with the humble hands that have lovingly crafted them. In Eastern tradition, it is believed that if something finds you, it’s meant for you.
Each piece in our collection is a true blessing, waiting to find its rightful home.
LILA WEAVER BOHEMIA is a testament to authenticity. With over five years of living and traveling in India, Jaiteg speaks Punjabi, allowing her to navigate and trade directly in these foreign lands. This Summer 2024, we will be bringing a fresh collection, featuring Indian silk dresses, kimonos, pants, and tops, alongside sought-after Amritsari cotton scarves and lightweight summer pashminas. These garments, inspired by the sacred city of Amritsar, where the Golden Temple stands adorned with over 570kg of gold, embody the very essence of luxurious craftsmanship.

Our collection is meticulously crafted from the finest natural elements, each bringing its unique essence to your style.
Our Exquisite Fabrics:
Hemp Fabric: Derived from the Cannabis sativa L. plant, hemp fabric shares its lineage with linen, jute, flax, and bamboo. Known as bast fibers, these materials offer durability and a natural, rustic charm.
Silk Fabric: Revered across India as Paat, Pattu, or Resham, silk is a luxurious fiber produced from mulberry silkworm cocoons through the delicate process of sericulture. It promises an unparalleled softness and shine.
Wool: Harvested primarily from sheep, wool is composed of the protein keratin, akin to human hair but much finer in the case of Merino wool. This makes it ideal for sumptuous, next-to-skin apparel.
Yak Wool: Sourced from the coat hair of yaks, native to the Himalayan region and Central Asia, yak wool offers a unique blend of warmth and softness, perfect for luxurious garments.
Cotton: A plant fiber made of cellulose, cotton is a staple in fashion for its breath-ability and comfort. The cellulose, a polymer of glucose, is crafted by the cotton plant’s vibrant green chloroplasts.
Rayon: A versatile fiber made from regenerated cellulose, typically from eucalyptus trees but also from various plants like bamboo and soy. Rayon offers a silky texture and a lustrous finish.
