2. A Legacy of Craftsmanship (Short History)

The Royal Weave of Rajasthan Kota Silk, originally known as Kota Doria, traces its roots to the royal city of Kota in Rajasthan. Legend has it that this unique weave was developed in the 17th century by Jhala Zalim Singh, a ruler who wanted a fabric that was both strong and lightweight for his soldiers’ turbans

. Over centuries, the craft evolved into a beloved saree fabric, characterized by its translucent texture and intricate square patterns called "Khats," created by alternating silk and cotton threads. At Saree Story with Shanmuga Priya & Azhagi, we honor this heritage by bringing you authentic Kota Silk sarees that celebrate the skill of Rajasthani artisans while adding a contemporary touch for the modern woman.

4. Wash Care & Maintenance

To preserve the beauty and longevity of your Kota Silk Saree, please follow these care instructions:

  • Wash Care: Hand wash only using a mild shampoo or gentle liquid detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or bleach.
  • Drying: Dry the saree in the shade. Do not expose it directly to sunlight, as this may fade the color and weaken the delicate silk fibers

    .
  • Ironing: Use low heat if ironing is necessary. Preferably, iron on the reverse side or use a cloth barrier to protect the zari border.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Wrap in a muslin cloth to allow breathability and prevent yellowing. Avoid plastic covers for long-term storage.
  • Stain Removal: For any stains, gently spot clean with cold water and mild soap. Do not rub vigorously.

Craft

All of Ajrakh's ingredients are made from nature, including herbs, botanical essences, and natural minerals. Some of the common ingredients are wild indigo, pomegranate bark and seeds, and hardwoods. Camel dungs, which are abundant in the region, are used as a material to remove starch from the dough. In ancient times, Ajrakh was printed on both sides. The herders who traditionally wore Ajrakh left home before sunrise and could not distinguish the right side from the other side in the dark because there was no electricity at that time. That's why Ajrakh was printed in both sides.

The Art Behind Ajrakh

Heritage Craftsmanship

Woven in tradition, dyed in history.

Ajrakh sarees are an ancient block-printing marvel from Gujarat and Rajasthan. Each piece takes days to make and involves natural dyes, hand-carved wooden blocks, and meticulous detailing — making every saree a work of heritage and heart.

Naturally Dyed Elegance

Eco-conscious, skin-friendly, and timeless.

Made with vegetable dyes like indigo, madder root, and turmeric, these sarees are not just gentle on your skin — they’re gentle on the planet. The deep, earthy tones give a vintage yet contemporary charm.

Intricate Block Printing

Crafted with over 20 stages of handwork.

Ajrakh sarees are made using centuries-old block-printing techniques, where each motif is stamped by hand using hand-carved wooden blocks. The precision and patience involved give every saree a unique, artistic identity.

Comfort Meets Luxury

Soft on the skin, stunning in style.

Woven on fine cotton or silk bases, Ajrakh sarees are lightweight, breathable, and ideal for all-day wear. Whether you're dressing up for a long event or a quick evening out, these sarees offer unmatched comfort with effortless grace.

Support Artisan Communities

Every purchase empowers a legacy.

Each Ajrakh saree is handmade by skilled artisans from rural parts of Gujarat and Rajasthan. By choosing Ajrakh, you are preserving a 4000-year-old craft and directly supporting the livelihoods of traditional craftspeople.
