Made By: This beautiful saree is handwoven by Khimji Samji. Samji belongs to the Vankar weaver community from Bhujodi village. Weaving has been the primary occupation of his family from generations. What struck us about his work is his amazing ability to pair colors and create complex extra weft motifs. He creates woven articles drawing from rich heritage techniques that are traditional and at once pleasantly contemporary.
Bhujodi: Bhujodi, a 500 year old small town, is a major textile center of Kutch, with the vast majority of the inhabitants involved in textile handicrafts. The Vankars of Bhujodi, about 200 of them are primarily involved in cloth weaving. This weaving technique used to be for headgear and shawls and later the weavers started using this weave for other products like shawls, sarees, dupattas, stoles and yardages. These woven products are an excellent example of intricate and colorful extra weft weaving technique. The fibres often used are cotton, wool and silk. Typically the whole household is engaged in the process, while men sit on the loom and weave, women take care of preparing the yarn, setting it up on the loom and finishing the woven articles. The young ones in the family pick up the craft at early age watching and learning from their elders.
