Excerpt:
The soft mud on the forest floor soothed her tired muscles and the petrichor was the best fragrance she had ever known. Away from the stifling urban jungle, her day out in the real jungle filled her soul with peace. So much so that even the burnt ashes from the dying fire had warmth that reminded her of the best hugs she had ever felt!
This absolutely arresting grey handloom mul saree is truly one of a kind. The tassels add the perfect pop of colour to steal your heart away!
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.
