What an art it is!

When you tell somebody that the patterned designs arrive after selected portions on the fabric are tied by string or thread in knots, dyed and then the knots removed, they would simply scoff at a story cooked up nicely.

Yea, it indeed is like a fairytale and a mesmerising one at that. Only for the fairytale to take effect, the calculations have to be accurate and the knots must be tied in the correct places before the dyeing is done. Once the dyeing is over and the knots are removed, Voila! The panorama unfolds before your eyes. A new pattern, a new arrangement, a new design from a whole range for you to choose from!

Let us explore what you have in store

The Bandhani range this time coming in the unlock period of the Pandemic, the weavers have thrown their heart in their offerings, with helpful suggestions and useful guidance on market trends from Unnati Silks. Essentially what do you have in the hand?

• A Bandhani based on tastes; both Indian and the English tongue. While Indian liking for colors are for the exciting and vibrant hues, the English leanings are towards the softer pastel shades.
• There is a great indulgence when it comes to fabrics, considering that silk, cotton, crepe silk, chiffon, georgette have all been used as canvas for the Bandhani patterns and designs with generous use of golden zari made in good measure.
• Bandhani patterns have been created both in the light hues as usual but with the added ‘flavour’ of dark colors also being made use of in places for the patterns. The reason simply being that the ambit makes room for international tastes as well.
• The array of bandhani includes few samples of lovely shibori as well. Prints have gone hand-in-hand with the Bandhani patterns
• What becomes apparent is the colors that have been used are vivid and encompass a wide range from deep and dark to light and vibrant shades.
• Borders have been made eye-catching or simply done away with in a few cases. The use of narrow golden zari borders in some instances, have enhanced the offerings.
• And what about the pricing? It is done considering the chosen patterns, the extent of Bandhani incorporations, the fabrics used and of course the tie & dye effort as well. Good for you, good or me, good for every other body as well.
• And of course the range infuses a tremendous amount of liveliness and shall I say ‘Life’ as well

Here is that wonderful range for you to see for yourself. And indulge in buying as well.
