She was a docile little bud in the enormous forest. But that had no effect on her strength and fierceness. She allowed herself to stay with her vulnerability until one day she developed into a wildflower! A miracle of a flower that grew in places where people least expected it to survive. Now that she was here, no one could frighten her to wither, to let go, or to fall weak. Her petals became her badges of survival, and the thorns became her throne. The then enormous forest now became a garden of love, only because she had given herself love before she expected it from anywhere else.
This saree’s name is inspired by the Odissi dance mudra - Mukula, which means “a bud”.
This Ikat handloom cotton rust and black coloured saree, with black tassels magnificently becomes a part of you and your story, in the most pristine way.
This is a handloom cotton Ikat saree.
Ikat is an art of resist-dyeing where the yarn is coated with resistive materials in specific patterns and then dyed before weaving the fabric. The process of applying dye-resist and dyeing is repeated multiple times to create exquisite patterns.
Handloom cotton is a type of fabric that is woven using hand operated looms. Two sets of interlacing yarns, the warp (length) and weft (width), are woven on a mechanised loom operated by weavers. These looms do not use electricity. Human handling lends the fabrics a unique feel and renders the fabrics more value.
The art of hand weaving is labour intensive and takes a longer time. But, the beauty it adds to the fabric is priceless. Choosing handloom cotton supports the rich weaving heritage of India and lets the weavers carry on the precious art-form to the future generations as well.
