Product details

A handwoven Odisha cotton saree with Saura tribal art motifs printed across a deep peacock teal field The cream figures depict dancing communities drumming groups and ceremonial gatherings drawn in the unmistakable stick figure idiom of the Saura people of Rayagada and Gajapati districts A pale grey silver border runs along both lengths and the pallu carries the same figurative repeat with a tasselled finish To distinguish this from a printed polyester knockoff look closely at the figures each one has a faint blur at the edge where the natural dye has soaked into the weave instead of sitting on top Powerloom prints look pin sharp because the colour is fused on the surface a handloom block print on cotton lets the dye bleed by a fraction of a millimetre into adjacent threads Turn the saree over the teal colour on the reverse is nearly as deep as the front because the dye has penetrated the yarn rather than just coating it The body has a slubby hand with occasional thicker weft picks characteristic of pit loom cotton Saura art or Idital is one of India s oldest surviving wall painting traditions The motifs were originally painted on village mud walls during seasonal festivals the weavers here have translated those wall paintings onto cloth Wear this saree to gallery openings cultural evenings or office days when you want conversation around the drape Pair with terracotta jewellery a plain cream blouse and Kolhapuri flats
