2. A Legacy of Craftsmanship Shortly

The Kota Doria weave was refined in 17th-century Rajasthan, where royal weavers developed a gossamer-light fabric with its distinctive square-grid pattern, originally crafted for desert climates. Centuries later, in the Mughal courts of Lucknow, Chikankari emerged as a delicate white-on-white embroidery tradition, celebrated for its 32+ stitch techniques and poetic motifs.

At Saree Story with Shanmuga Priya & Azhagi, we bridge these two legendary craft lineages by replacing traditional needlework with meticulous Chikankari-style handblock printing. Master artisans carve teakwood blocks, hand-dip them in natural inks, and press each pattern with rhythmic precision. This fusion honors India’s textile heritage while offering modern breathability, making every saree a wearable archive of craftsmanship.



3. Why Choose This?

  • 🔍 Zero-Mass-Production Appeal: Each handblock impression varies slightly, ensuring your saree is truly one-of-a-kind

  • 💎 Effortless Styling Canvas: Pairs beautifully with temple jewelry, oxidized silver, or minimalist contemporary accessories
  • 🤝 Ethical Sourcing: Direct artisan partnerships, fair wages, and chemical-conscious production
  • 📦 Brand-Curated Quality: Personally vetted by Shanmuga Priya & Azhagi for drape, colorfastness, and finish
  • 🎁 Gifting Ready: Ships in eco-friendly packaging with a craftsmanship care card



4. Wash Care & Maintenance

  • 🧼 Hand shampoo wash only in cold or lukewarm water using mild, pH-neutral liquid
  • 🖐️ Do not wring, scrub, or soak for extended periods to protect handblock impressions & fabric integrity
  • 🌤️ Dry in shadow on a flat surface or clothesline; never expose directly to sunlight to prevent fading & fiber stress
  • 🚫 Avoid bleach, harsh detergents, machine washing, or tumble drying
  • 🔥 Iron on low heat with a cotton cloth barrier; steam gently if needed
  • 📦 Store folded in breathable muslin or cotton bags away from moisture & direct light
  • 💡 For deep cleaning or long-term preservation, opt for professional dry cleaning once a season
