Intricacy of Ikat Work: The Ikat work on this saree is not just a design but a manifestation of an ancient, labor-intensive process. The term "Ikat" refers to the dyeing technique used to pattern textiles that employs a resist dyeing process on the yarns prior to dyeing and weaving the fabric. The saree's Pallu and border feature hand-woven, multi-colored Ikat work, adorned with both floral and abstract designs, which add depth and complexity to its appearance.
Pallu & Border Highlights: - Hand-woven multi-color Ikat work and tie-dye work - Features floral and abstract designs
These elaborate designs are further complemented by tie-dye abstract patterns in the center part of the saree. The combination of Ikat and tie-dye works provides a stunning visual contrast and makes each saree a unique, one-of-a-kind piece.
Single Ikat Technique: The saree employs a single Ikat technique, which is a complex method where the warp (lengthwise threads) or the weft (crosswise threads) are tie-dyed before weaving. This technique requires immense precision and skill, often executed manually. The tie-dyeing abstract designs in the saree’s central part involve interweaving tied and dyed warp with plain weft or inserting resisted weft yarns into the plain weft.
Meticulous Hand-Weaving: Mostly created by women artisans, this saree undergoes nearly 9000 hand-weaving turns over a period of 5 to 10 hours. This labor-intensive process ensures that every inch of the fabric is meticulously crafted, contributing to its intricate designs and overall elegance.
