2. A Legacy of Craftsmanship (Short History)

The Pure Tussar Silk with Handblock and Digital Print is a bold evolution of Indian textile artistry. Tussar silk, known as “wild silk,” has been revered since ancient times for its organic luster and sacred warmth—woven by tribal and rural weavers across Central and Eastern India.

This saree bridges two worlds: the centuries-old tradition of handblock printing, where artisans carve wooden blocks and stamp motifs using natural dyes, and the precision of digital printing, which allows for complex, photorealistic patterns and consistent detailing. The result? A saree where the soul of handcraft meets the clarity of modern design.

Saree Story with Shanmuga Priya & Azhagi pioneers this fusion to make heritage accessible without compromising ethics or aesthetics. Founded by textile revivalist Shanmuga Priya and design innovator Azhagi, the brand collaborates with block printers from Rajasthan and weavers from Bhagalpur to create pieces that honor tradition while embracing innovation. This saree is not just fashion—it’s a dialogue between past and present, hand and machine, heart and vision.
