Patola - Purple

A Figure Patola in All Over Purple

Step into the world of Patola, where every thread is dyed before it is woven, and the pattern lives inside the yarn itself long before it ever touches the loom.

This exquisite Patola saree unfolds in the traditional Figure design, in an all over rich purple colour combination, handwoven in pure mulberry silk. Patterned across a deep violet ground with a scalloped medallion trellis, gold elephants alternate with bold coral flower bursts, while smaller coral-and-gold paisleys sit within teal-ringed circles, all scattered amid delicate floral sprigs.

Rows of gold elephants and coral flower bursts alternate within the scalloped medallion trellis, framed by teal-ringed paisleys and fine floral sprigs across the violet field. The border is patterned in a rhythmic band of florals set within a diamond trellis in magenta, teal and gold. The pallu opens onto the same rich purple-magenta ground layered with rows of floral diamonds in coral, teal and pink, closing into a luminous silver-gold zari stripe and fine white pinstripes, finished with a fringe of rich magenta silk tassels. Each motif takes shape through the painstaking resist-dyeing of the yarns before weaving, a technique that demands exceptional patience, precision and skill from the artisan.

The Artful Finish - Ready to wear, with fall neatly done. The pallu is completed with hand-knotted netted silk tassels, adding a graceful final flourish.

Preserving Your Heritage - To honor the artistry of your Patola, cradle it in soft cotton or breathable muslin, ensuring it is refolded every few months to keep the silk supple and free of permanent creases. Guard this treasure from the reach of perfumes, dampness, and the harsh glare of direct sun. Professional dry cleaning is advised to maintain the ethereal luster of the zari and the integrity of the silk. In every thread of Patola, a legacy of craft is preserved.

A Note on Handmade Beauty

No two handcrafted sarees are ever exactly alike. Subtle variations in colour, texture, and finish are part of their charm, the quiet signature of the hands that created them. Colors and textures may also appear slightly different depending on lighting, photography, screen settings, and other viewing conditions.

Every motif tells a story. Every thread carries the artisan's touch. And when you drape it, that story becomes yours.
