Heritage and Origin

The enduring Kadwa weave is an elaborate and laborious technique that involves hand-weaving each motif separately.  This intricate work derives its name from Kadha hua, meaning embroidered. The fabric so created is a result of meticulous handweaving that takes longer time on the handloom, but makes a more robust pattern, which stands out on the fabric.

The painstaking Kadwa technique is used to incorporate motifs of a variety of shapes and sizes, which is not found in any other Benarasi technique such as Phekwa or Cutwork. In such sarees, there are no loose threads at the back of the fabric and hence, no cutting is required. Kadhua produces beautiful sarees which are a labour of love, attention to detail and the timelessness of the holy city of Benaras.
