2. A Legacy of Craftsmanship – Brief History

Rooted in the ancient weaving traditions of Narasaraopet, Andhra Pradesh, Mangalagiri sarees have been crafted for over 400 years near the sacred Lakshmi Narasimha Temple. Revered for their pure cotton and silk textures, these sarees were traditionally worn during rituals and temple ceremonies.

The Mangalagiri Pattu Jute Butta Saree by Shanmuga Priya & Azhagi honors this legacy by fusing heritage weaving with sustainable innovation. Using a blend of jute and silk, our artisans preserve the iconic temple borders and buttas while introducing eco-conscious materials. Each saree is handwoven on pit looms, taking 2–3 days to complete — a tribute to patience, devotion, and timeless artistry.

This collection celebrates the revival of handloom heritage, empowering weaver communities and promoting slow, soulful fashion across India and beyond.
