Our eyes are the windows to the world, they say. Well yes, to the outer world. But, where are windows to the world within? Some say their internal journey started from their heart. Some say it began from the intellect. I say that mine began from recognizing all those aspects of me that are part of the outer world. I see the warmth in my heart in the sun, the constant stream of my thoughts in the waves and the little revelations within me in blossoming flowers. Maybe the process of self-discovery begins through portals and not windows.

Our artisans paint with all their hearts to create the hand-painted sarees. First, the art is conceptualized (for this collection, the art is by Amrit Kurrana, a wonderful artist) it is replicated on a live-sized paper and sent to artisans in villages. These artisans keep this as a reference and paint the final painting on the fabric in a free-hand technique. The softest Mul fabric becomes the perfect canvas for this art and these sarees make a statement like no other. There are bound to be some irregularities here and there and no two products will look absolutely the same. This is the beautiful allure of hand-painted art.
The mul cotton is what we call ‘made in heaven’ at Suta. Known in West Bengal as mul mul, the fabric is buttery soft and delicately beautiful. The weave of this fabric is very fine, and this lends a very fluid texture to it that makes draping it a breeze. It is truly like a hug that wraps you in its love!
