The crafting story

Silk cotton sarees, as the name denotes, are an artistic blend of silk and cotton. With a harmonious confluence of lush silk threads and light cotton threads, our master artisans artistically bring a silk cotton saree to life, yard by yard.

Woven on traditional looms, silk cotton sarees are crafted by placing silk threads on warp and cotton threads on weft, or vice versa. The threads are Intricately intertwined to give a subtle glow and a light porous texture.

Most regional heartlands of India have their own unique version of silk cotton sarees. While weavers in Tamilnadu specialise in handloom silk cotton sarees, the wonderfully elegant maheswari silk cotton sarees from Madhya Pradesh and pochampally silk cotton sarees from Telangana are also a big hit among the saree connoisseurs of Tamilnadu.

Cotton silk sarees are another variation of SICO sarees, Here the body is crafted in pure cotton and the border is woven in pure silk.
