Hallmarks

hand tied bandhej knots from Kutch finished with kadhwa Banarasi zari.

Two crafts, two states, one saree. The bandhej knots are tied by women in Bhuj before the cloth ever reaches a Banarasi loom, where the zari border is then woven in. Photographed inside our atelier on Road №10, Jubilee Hills. To see this banarasi bandhani in person, or on a private video call, send us a quick WhatsApp.

Most pieces in this archive are one of a kind. If this saree has already found a home, we will either show you its closest cousin or commission a near twin from the same cluster and the same hand.
