The ancient craft of wax-resist dyeing called Batik adds a timeless charm to this saree. Wax-resist dyeing has been a part of so many ancient civilisations across the world and can be uniquely characterised by the local motifs and designs used. Specifically in India, Batik is said to have over 2000 years of history. Materials such as wax or rice starch was used to create the resistance to dye and thus create the Batik designs. The entire process involves various steps such as drawing the basic pattern, redrawing using wax and then applying the dye.Then, the wax is removed after the fabric dries. This is done multiple times to create various patterns with different colours.The process of dyeing is something that has been passed down by generations of artisans and the stunning designs created by these master craftsmen are timeless.

Silk gives out a vibe of elegance that a very few other fabrics can match. 
The soft and warm shine that vibrates from a silk saree spells comfort and any occasion ready wear. 
The process of producing silk involves many stages such as extracting silk threads 
from the cocoons of silk-worms, twisting multiple silk threads to make strong threads and 
weaving the threads into these beautiful silk sarees. The silk worms are made to feed mainly on Mulberry 
trees and other specific types of trees for high-quality silk. India has constantly been one of the top producers 
of silk in the world.
People associate silk with special occasions and elegance vibe. These handpainted and hand batik silks belong to 
Bishnupur region from West Bengal. One can never go wrong when you wear a silk.
