What is Hand Dyed?
Hand dyeing is a manual fabric coloring process where artisans apply dyes by hand—through dipping, brushing, or resist dyeing — producing unique shades and gradients that are impossible to replicate with machines.
How is the Hand Dyed Kota Silk Kantha Saree handcrafted?
Fine Kota silk yarns are woven to create a sheer, breathable base. Skilled artisans hand dye the saree, layering colors for a one-of-a-kind finish. After dyeing, Kantha embroidery—tiny, even running stitches—is carefully handstitched across the fabric, forming floral, geometric, or folk inspired motifs. The saree is then finished and quality checked to ensure exceptional craftsmanship.
