Sambhal puri Ikat cotton saree

The salient feature of these saris is the traditional craftsmanship of the 'Bandhakala'- the Tie-dye art reflected in their intricate weaves, also known as Sambalpuri "Ikkat". In this technique, the threads are first tie-dyed and later woven into a fabric, with the entire process taking many weeks. Ikkat sarees are known for their vibrant, geometric, and abstract patterns. These patterns can range from floral motifs to abstract lines, making each saree unique. The design is visible on both sides of the fabric, which gives the saree a reversible nature.
