When colours met weaves, and wool met beads, magical creations Mandalas took over Chitwan! Big shout out to Julia who made this possible once again with her immense patience and warmth! Thanks to all who came by and made it a successful workshop :)

If Chitwan had to have its own jhaanki, this is what it would look like- adorned by the colours of the Republic that is India, with a little bit of creative innovation and a whole lot of the traditional!
Wishing you all a very Happy Republic day! :)

A very Happy New Year to one and all! May the love for the Traditional continue to grow and evolve with each passing year :)

Moga and Eri silks from Assam, Tussars from Bhagalpur, Patolas from Gujarat, Bomkais from Orissa, and a lot more drapes to keep you warm and brighten up this winter.

The Paithani from Maharashtra
(Price on request)

The Paithani sarees from Paithan, a town close to Aurangabad, weave magical motifs of the Muniya (parrot), Mor (peacock), Kamal (lotus) in very fine silk. Inspired from the Buddhist paintings in the caves of Ajanta, the Paithani is characterised by borders of an oblique square design, and a pallu with a peacock design, and is considered as one of the richest sarees in Maharashtra.

Silk Patola dupattas from Gujarat.

Patola- the ancient art of double ikat weaving is now being revived by NGOs in Gujarat who are using traditional motifs to bring to Patolas a new and refreshing look. There being only three communities who weave Patan Patolas, the supply has been curbed over the years, as the demand for extremely expensive Patolas also fell. Some NGOs are therefore, training weavers in this art and bringing the art of Patolas back.

Watch this space over the weekend for the beautiful Patola sarees from this particular NGO, alongwith many more beautiful winter drapes.

Winter is officially here, and Chitwan is back with a whole new range of sarees in pure silks and tussars, Bomkais and Patolas, hand-embroidered and block printed!

Stay tuned and brighten up the dreary winters with colourful, beautiful silk drapes!
