Revel in the Folds of Timeless Tradition

The Saree has its origins going as far back as the Indus Valley Civilization, 2800-1800 B.C. It captivates with charm to enhance the enigma of the Indian woman. Draped in a myriad unique ways, it carries with it the graceful folds of an ancient civilization. Each holds in its weaves motifs illustrating the harmony of Indians with Nature.  From the Northern Himalayan mountain ranges in Jammu and Kashmir, to the Western Ghats, Gujarat, Maharastra, the Eastern States of West Bengal and Orissa and North-Eastern Seven Sister States or the rich Southern belt, Coastal and Central, Kerala, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, Andhra, this single length of fabric in six or sometimes, nine yards, drapes millions of women in a singular tradition that captures in its flow the diversity of the rich weaves of the heritage of India.
