SR-0057 Mustard & Maroon Kanchivaram Silk Saree

Kanchivaram is one of the superior silk fabrics in the world, woven by skilled weavers from the famed temple town of Kanchipuram. This timeless colour combination of bottle Green, Deep Maroon and Mustard is woven by dividing the saree into three equal portions.

One of the earliest and simplest methods of textile printing, Block printing is, very simply put, the printing of patterns on textile using incised wooden blocks. Block printing involves myriad steps, but the most important step is the preparation of the block which determines the quality and clarity of impressions. The block is then dipped in the desired dye and carefully placed adjacent to the preceding impression of the block as per the design. Sakhi gives a contemporary twist to traditional Kanchivaram by treating it with Hand Block Printing.
