Resonant with the traditional theme of the royal hunt the Shikargarh weave celebrates the Indian imagery with motifs of elephants deer parrots and peacocks We have created a bespoke handwoven saree to revive this pattern in the Amdavadi weave using natural Indigo dye We are in love with Indigo the natural pigment is rare as it is derived from the leaves of only certain plants that are native to the Indian subcontinent This saree is the sweet result of a long and laborious effort where the mulberry silk yarn was first dyed in natural indigo and then hand woven with gold and silver zari all of which took about 40 days

Resonant with the traditional theme of the royal hunt, the Shikargarh weave celebrates the Indian imagery with motifs of elephants, deer, parrots and peacocks.
We have created a bespoke handwoven saree to revive this pattern in the Amdavadi weave using natural Indigo dye. We are in love with Indigo, the natural pigment is rare, as it is derived from the leaves of only certain plants that are native to the Indian subcontinent.
This saree is the sweet result of a long and laborious effort, where the mulberry silk yarn was first dyed in natural indigo and then hand-woven with gold and silver zari, all of which took about 40 days.
