Introducing our exquisite Ilkal Cotton Silk Saree, a timeless piece from Ilkal town in the Bagalkot district of Karnataka. Celebrated for its rich heritage and intricate craftsmanship, this saree embodies the essence of traditional hand-loom artistry. Renowned across North Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, and Maharashtra, these sarees are designed to suit the warm, inviting weather of the region.
The hallmark of Ilkal sarees lies in their distinctive weaving technique and materials. These sarees are crafted using a silk warp and cotton weft for the body, while the pallu is woven with silk on both the warp and weft, often featuring a striking temple design. The sarees are traditionally woven on a pit or frame loom, often fitted with dobby or jacquard, and the Tope Teni technique, exclusive to Ilkal, is used to join the body warp with the pallu warp through a series of loops. This meticulous process is what gives the saree its characteristic length, typically ranging from 16 to 27 inches for the pallu alone.
Ilkal sarees are available in a range of vibrant colors, including pomegranate red, peacock green, and parrot green. The saree’s borders are broad, typically ranging from 4 to 6 inches, and are woven with traditional designs like Gomi, Paraspet, and Gaadi, while the body features patterns of stripes, rectangles, and squares.
Crafted from premium cotton silk, this saree showcases a unique blend of comfort and sophistication. The fabric’s soft, breathable texture ensures a luxurious drape, perfect for any occasion. With a width of 47-49 inches and a length of 5.5 meters, this saree offers a stunning silhouette, while the additional 1 meter of fabric for the blouse ensures a customizable fit.
Adorned with traditional patterns that echo the heritage of Ilkal weaving, this saree is more than just attire—it’s a celebration of culture and artistry. Embrace the timeless beauty and storied tradition of the Ilkal saree with this elegant piece, crafted to make every moment special.
Embodying the essence of Wabi-Sabi, this handloom product celebrates the beauty found in imperfection and the natural cycle of growth and decay. The subtle irregularities and hand-crafted nuances in the fabric and print bring a unique, soulful character to each piece, making it a timeless treasure.
