Flitting across the body of the weave as they would through the summer branches, dragonflies of myriad colours create a delicate harmony of handblock print on this undyed handwoven Vidarbha Tussar silk saree with traditional karvati kinar borders and a striped palla.
Unique for tis silk woven only from naturally-found wild silkworm cocoons in the rich and fertile forest soil, the Vidarbha Tussar silk saree is iconic for its luminous, glossy, undyed silk and the traditional karvati-kinar (sawtooth design) borders with a striped palla. From foraging to weaving to printing to draping, these sarees are an ode to a nearly bygone era of organic design.

Capturing a nostalgic aesthetic from cinema dreams of black and white film, Prakriti — our exclusive collection of handblock printed handwoven sarees — plays with the charm of the antique in a contemporary format.
Note*: We try our best to photograph each of our sarees in a diverse array of lighting so as to show you, our customer, the different ways in which handloom might appear to the eye under natural light, artificial light, white light, yellow light, etc. Slight discrepancies might still arise in the colour of the fabric due to the nature of handloom weaving despite our utmost efforts to address it.
Note**: The blouse piece is attached to the saree. The model is wearing a separate blouse for styling purposes.
