2. A Legacy of Craftsmanship

Saree Story with Shanmuga Priya & Azhagi is rooted in the rich textile heritage of South India, where every thread tells a tale of devotion, artistry, and cultural continuity.

This Modal Stole draws inspiration from the timeless drapes worn by women across generations—from temple corridors to modern runways. While traditional stoles were often woven in cotton or silk, this contemporary interpretation uses modal, a fabric that marries old-world elegance with new-age comfort. Developed in the 20th century but embraced globally for its sustainability and softness, modal aligns with our brand’s mission: to honor heritage while innovating responsibly.

Each stole is finished by hand in small batches, ensuring attention to detail and supporting local artisan communities.
