Story
She dreamt with her legs and hoped with her arms. She communicated with her eyes and expressed with her movements. Her saree followed the tunes of the classical music, while her heart reflected the uniqueness that she longed to see in the world. She became one with the goddesses when she offered prayers to the Her in the temple through her dance, while the universe watched in awe.
The name of this saree is inspired by the Odissi dance mudra - Suchi, which is a word associated with Lord Brahma, when he declared, “I am unique”.
This Ikat handloom cotton cider orange and red hued saree, with red tassels magnificently becomes a part of you and your story, in the most pristine way.
Description
This is a handloom cotton Ikat saree.
Ikat is an art of resist-dyeing where the yarn is coated with resistive materials in specific patterns and then dyed before weaving the fabric. The process of applying dye-resist and dyeing is repeated multiple times to create exquisite patterns.
Handloom cotton is a type of fabric that is woven using hand operated looms. Two sets of interlacing yarns, the warp (length) and weft (width), are woven on a mechanised loom operated by weavers. These looms do not use electricity. Human handling lends the fabrics a unique feel and renders the fabrics more value.
The art of hand weaving is labour intensive and takes a longer time. But, the beauty it adds to the fabric is priceless. Choosing handloom cotton supports the rich weaving heritage of India and lets the weavers carry on the precious art-form to the future generations as well.
