Kolam Handwoven Double Ikkat Cotton Telia Rumaal
Kolam Handwoven Double Ikkat Cotton Telia Rumaal
Nothing like a bold handwoven cotton Ikkat in the natural light of mid-afternoon. This stunning, geometric Telia Rumaal is a staple of the Double Ikkat tradition with a simple set of alternating kolam motifs on handwoven, pure cotton that makes a statement simply as it enters the room. All eyes turn to the classic palette of white on red & black.
In the Double Ikkat technique from India, both the warp and the weft are resist-dyed before they touch the loom — a process that is both immensely laborious and incredibly rewarding. Through the repeated and impeccably precise method of tie-dyeing designs, the complex designs and iconic geometry of the much-coveted Double Ikkat weave emerge. Did you know? Authentic Double Ikkat weaves are undertaken by master artisans in only three countries around the world at the moment: Indonesia, India, and Japan.
Our Ikkat sarees make for the perfect easy, breezy wear. Whether layered under other pieces or worn with a simple blouse for the warmer climates, these handwoven, pure cotton weaves are as durable as they are versatile for everyday wear.
Note: The blouse piece is attached with the saree. The model is wearing a separate blouse for styling purposes only.
