Rangkat Pure Katan Silk Banarasi Handloom Dupatta

One of our finest dupattas, this is an artistic treasure! Incredibly difficult to weave and timeless in its appeal, a Banarasi Rangkat dupatta is a rare, handloom masterpiece. In a beautiful blend of pastels, this dupatta brings the best of Indian weaving tradition. Time-honoured bootis, floral motifs and multiple colours complement any outfit.  

• Color¬†- A lovely combination of Pastels
• Technique¬†- An enduring Kadwa weave. This elaborate and laborious technique involves hand-weaving each motif separately. It takes longer on the handloom,¬†but makes a more robust pattern which stands out on the fabric.
• Fabric¬†- Soft as butter, pure Katan silk
• Speciality¬†- Rangkat is a handloom technique which is on the verge of disappearing. Only a handful of¬†weavers remain that can weave a true Rangkat. This exquisite and time-intensive technique can be identified by the sharp¬†changes¬†in the base colours of the fabric. This requires multiple changes in the warp and the weft and produces a beautiful multicoloured garment.
• Tilfi Promise¬†- Pure. Handloom. Banaras.

 

Since this product is handwoven, there might be slight irregularities. But don't you think these add to the singular charm of a handloom beauty?
