My Story

“The engraved glory as its virtue,
Honouring the craftsmen for its exhibition,
Anointing the cloth with its prestigious marks,
Praising the subject with its magnificent prowess”

What she feels

Levitating you to cloud nine, this collage of floral imprints will transcend her into the stargazing memory. Multi-boxed ends and near-abstract artwork on the base initiate the mesmerizing voyage to take you her in time.

This chanderi silk saree is crafted with Dabu Handblock Indigo printing. This process starts with soaking the indigo plant to extract the beautiful vibrant dye. Hand-carved wooden blocks are used for applying a mud resist known to the fabric. Once the fabric has been dyed, the areas with the mud application, continue to remain white and the rest of the fabric takes on the dynamic hues of lapis lazuli, cerulean midnight, all originating from the indigo plant.

Most people experience fading or bleeding of the indigo fabric, which is primarily because of indigo will not actually form a chemical bond with the fabric into which it is dyed. It ends up becoming insoluble again when put into water. By reacting with air, it tends to get accumulated in the tiny spaces within the fiber.
