The Artistry Behind Kota Doria Sarees

Originating from Kaithoon near Kota in Rajasthan, these sarees represent a rich heritage dating back over 250 years. The magic of Doria Kota fabric lies in its unique weaving technique that combines cotton and silk threads to create a translucent, lightweight texture with the characteristic square patterns. Skilled weavers in Kota, Rajasthan use traditional pit looms to craft these delicate masterpieces, with each saree taking up to a week to complete.

What sets pure Kota Doria sarees apart is their exceptional breathability and comfort, making them ideal for India's climate. The Bagru handblock printing elevates these traditional textiles with hand-stamped patterns using natural dyes, creating pieces that are both environmentally friendly and visually stunning.
