Story
Her path is fluid.
She took neither the road less travelled, nor the other one. She walked on the grass, hopped across the fence sometimes and perched on trees. She waltzed through life, so joyful, that she embraced not just a path, but the entire landscape of her beautiful world!
This is a handcrafted, handloom mulberry silk saree in gorgeous pink and red hues, with exquisite batik work.
Description
Batik is a wax-based resist-dying technique that is said to have originated in Java, Indonesia. To make a batik, hot wax is applied to selected areas of the design to create blocks. The cloth is then dipped in dye. The parts of the design covered in wax resist the dye and retain their original colour. This process is repeated several times to create elaborate and vibrant designs.
Batik is a very labour-intensive process. Since the wax is applied by hand by our artisans and the dying process does not occur in very controlled environments, there are always slight variations in the colour and design owing to the climate, temperature and other external factors.
For this collection, Batik has been created on a canvas of handwoven mulberry silk, which is lightweight, easy to drape and lends an effortless elegance to the wearer. These sarees have been crafted by Suta's artisans in West Bengal.
