My Story

Like a musical note played in its composition;
Fabric is inked down to its finest detail,
Treasuring the symbolic influence of artisans,
As a gavotte dance over the third beat of bar

What she feels

Dots dangle as lines legislate the undaunting expression of the craftsmen in this ravishing saree. A piece that can easily sway through decades through marvelous rendezvous.

This Chanderi silk is crafted with Bagru handblock printing. Bagru a small town near Jaipur internationally known for its craft called Bagru Block Printing. Yet, it’s hard to find words that can encompass the beauty of this craft. Chhipa the printer community who never stops working, starting with ridding the fabric of starch and other impurities with the help of soap water & When it is sufficiently dry, primed in a mixture of cool water and harda, a natural occurring tannic acid, reds for the dyes are made from fitkari, madder root, and babul gond. The blacks are made with syahi(fermented rust from burnt horseshoe, jaggery, and water). The vibrant blues, perhaps, take the longest, made from wells called Naand, leaving the indigo to ferment for months. As the man moves around his printing workshop, he can spot coriander sprigs, pomegranate rinds, and rose petals.
