Story
A great calm belied turbulent depths. The illusion of stillness smoothed over an eternal restlessness. The big blue was a paradox, she thought, as she gazed wistfully into the shimmering horizon. The sand between her toes was a bright gold. The waves were infused with a frothy lightness. Each breaker carved a delicate lattice, urging her to take just one step further into the cool fray.
She often wondered why she loved the sea the way she did. And standing here, at its threshold, she finally had her answer “ like her, the waves were restless and playful. Like her, the sea was deep and profound. Like her, the sea knew exactly what it meant to be two people at the same time. And like her, it knew how to strike the right balance.
Drape yourself in the oceans ever-changing effervescence, with this multi-coloured handloom cotton saree.
Description
The handloom cotton is a type of fabric that is woven using hand-operated looms. Two sets of interlacing yarns, the warp (length) and weft (width), are woven on a mechanised loom operated by weavers. These looms do not use electricity. Human handling lends the fabrics a unique feel and renders the fabrics more value. The resultant fabric is softer, more durable and much more comfortable than machine-made fabrics. Handloom cotton is more breathable and thus feels lighter in summers and provides more insulation in winters. The dyeing process also becomes easier for handloom cotton as the colour penetration is substantially more. Hues are absorbed better thus look resplendent on handloom cotton.
The art of hand-weaving is labour intensive and takes a longer time. But, the beauty it adds to the fabric is priceless. Choosing handloom cotton supports the rich weaving heritage of India and lets the weavers carry on the precious art-form to the future generations as well.
