Charan Alamkara - Adoration at her Feet
Narrating a tale of adoration, this saree depicts a scene of love. On its pallu, a scene unfolds—a male lover reverently admires the feet of a nayika, serenaded by attendants. The body of the saree is adorned with dainty floral bootis, lending a gentle rhythm to the design. Rich in detail and sentiment, this weave celebrates the tradition of narrative art and figurative storytelling in Indian textiles, a heritage that is becoming increasingly rare.
-
Color - A charming shade of Off-White
-
Technique - An enduring Kadwa weave and fine Meenakari technique. The elaborate and laborious Kadwa (Kadhua) technique involves hand-weaving each motif separately. It takes longer on the handloom, but makes a more robust pattern, which stands out on the fabric. Meenakari involves the painstaking addition of supplementary coloured resham threads during the hand-weaving process.
-
Fabric - Pure Katan Silk
-
Collection Note - Tilfi’s Bridal Collection is a lyrical celebration of timeless artistry and love, drawing its essence from the evocative Ashtanayikas depicted in Ragamala paintings. Inspired by the symbology steeped in Indian tradition and the resplendent imagery of these historic artworks, the collection unravels the emotional essence of ‘Shringar Ras’—the rasa that celebrates love, devotion, and adornment.

Since this product is handwoven, there might be slight irregularities. But don't you think these add to the singular charm of a handloom beauty?
