Minakari vermillion

Handwoven for a light luxurious drape, this Taatini is adorned with a revived 500-year-old Ahom zari motif called the Kinkhap. A tissue pallu with the Kinkhap designed only in the pleats and in the pallu. Minakari, a technique that evolved from the inlay and enamel work found in Mughal monuments and jewellery. In our handloom Minakari sarees, the enamel is reflected by coloured silk inserted by hand to outline the motifs.                                              

Woven in Benares, a one-of-a-kind saree, reflecting the intermingling of innovative  design with traditional techniques of India's handloom heritage.
