Paithani
Paithani Sari with Peacock Pallu
“A handpainted gicha tussar silk sari featuring intricate warli art designs bringing together timeless artistry and luxurious fabric.”
The sari is a tribute to tribal village life, capturing the essence of daily routines and communal celebrations through storytelling motifs. The design portrays men and women engaged in everyday activities - working in the fields, drawing water from the well, carrying water pots, cooking, grazing animals, celebrating rituals and joyful dancing.
Each element reflects the deep connection between nature, culture, and community, hallmark features of warli art. The sari is a perfect blend of tradition and artistry.

Applied to silk and cotton with natural pigments and bamboo or twig pens, they carry a graphic, narrative density unlike any woven design.
