Jodhpur

An age-old tradition, an exquisite art – Bandhani is as delicate as it is captivating. Vibrant hues and intricate patterns highlight this art of creating patterned styles on cottons and silks. This traditional technique involves the delicate tying of small fabric portions with threads, followed by a careful dyeing process that imbues the cloth with a kaleidoscope of colours. The result is a mesmerizing array of circular patterns, each uniquely beautiful. Artisans employ natural dyes to achieve the rich, vivid shades that define Bandhani, showcasing their skill and precision. These stunning creations are often seen in Indian attires such as sarees, dupattas, and turbans, making them a staple for festive occasions. The art of Bandhani holds deep cultural significance in Rajasthan, where it originated from, with each region contributing its distinct styles and motifs.
