Brown-Maroon Pure Cotton Handloom Saree

Tribal communities share a deep connection with Nature, and many of their art forms use symbols and motifs to represent different elements of the natural world. This brown cotton saree is heavily influenced by Warli art which uses geometrics shapes such as circles, squares and triangles to express the observations of the tribal communities. The circles represent the sun and the moon, while the triangles symbolize mountains and pointed trees.

Heritage and Origin

Khandua, also known as Ikat, is a traditional Odiya weave famous for its exquisite craftsmanship and depiction of Bandha art. The use of motifs depicting human and natural forms, flora and fauna, temple architecture and geometrical patterns enhances its appeal. Odisha is home to the largest number of tribal communities in India, and tribal art is at the core of Odiya textiles and architecture. The deep interconnection between Nature and socio-religious customs is a common motif in all tribal art forms, including weaving, embroidery and hand painting on fabric.
