Saree Tradition India

The tradition of wearing sarees or saree-like drapery goes way back in time. Indian history has accounted for several mentions of sarees since time immemorial. Various paintings,poems, and literature point out the significance of sarees and their evolution.
The word ‘sattika’ has been mentioned in early Sanskrit literature which evolved to become the word, ‘sari.’ This sattika or sari was composed of three pieces, namely- Antriya (lower garment), Uttariya (veil worn over the head and shoulders), and Stanpatta (chest band). This is mentioned in Sanskrit and the Buddhist Pali literature of 6th century BC. Other works in Sanskrit such as the Kadambari by Banabhatta and ancient Tamil poetry, Silappadhikaram, describe women dressed in exquisite drapery or sarees.
The literary and historical sources from India point out the different styles of draping a saree and the different names given to it. Even today, we find different sarees and draping styles all over India. It is this difference and diversity in Indian sarees that adds to their beauty and cultural significance. Every saree is an expression of a state culture embedded in the Indian culture. As a piece of clothing, these sarees speak volumes about India’s notion of ‘unity in diversity’ and how a single piece of cloth worn differently by Indian women, connects them and creates a perfectly balanced blend of religion, culture, and distinctiveness.

Frequently asked question about Handloom

A piece of art created using hands, mind and heart. Handloom is a simple machine for weaving. It is loom that is used to weave fabrics without the use of electricity and thus it’s a manual operating system. The sarees made using this are known as handloom sarees. A perfect weave demands the coordination of mind and body and the dedication from the heart. The ‘hand woven sarees’ show the weaver’s aspiration of simply bringing beauty, elegance and grace to life along with providing a glimpse of Indian heritage and culture in it.

Handloom sarees depict the culture, heritage of the place they come from and transmit the experiences and feelings of the weaver. This craft is a tradition handed down from generations to generations. Investing in handloom means doing your bit in preserving a traditional craft and supporting an artisanal community. Also since the looms are operated completely by hand. This makes it a slow, green and labour intensive process resulting in a carbon footprint that is close to zero.

Handloom sarees are woven by hand and power loom sarees by machine, powered with the engine. Handloom is a dying skill, rapidly being replaced by Power-Loom. As it produces fast and at cheaper rates. Despite of that the sarees produce on power-loom are merely a six-yard of fabric, hardly personalised, all workers are just a part of the machinery, a mechanical system where repetition is the saviour. As masses are drawn to the attraction of low rate, left with no choice, many weavers have unwittingly adopted power-loom but still, there are quite a handful of humans in the remote areas who refuse to give up their tradition and what they stand for.

No, some sarees with very sheer fabric may not come with blouse pieces. For more details, please refer to the "Product Info" section located below the product description. This section will provide you with specific information about what is included with each saree.

The difference between block printed and screen printed sarees lies in the technique used to create the designs on the fabric.

Block printed saree: Block printing is a traditional form of textile printing that involves using carved wooden blocks to apply the design onto the fabric. Skilled artisans dip the wooden block in dye or ink and then press it onto the fabric, repeating the process to create intricate patterns. Screen printing, on the other hand, is a more modern and mechanized technique. In screen printing, a mesh screen with the desired design is used. The screen is coated with a stencil of the design, and then the ink is applied over it. A squeegee is used to push the ink through the mesh, transferring the design onto the fabric below.
