Patola Saree Collection – Traditional Elegance with Timeless Charm

About Patola Sarees

Patola is a double ikat woven saree, usually made of silk in Patan, Gujarat. These sarees are highly valued, traditionally belonging to royal and aristocratic families. The resist-dyeing process using both warp and weft techniques makes Gujarati Patola sarees treasured heirlooms. If legends existed in weaving, Patola silk sarees would epitomize them. Available in a variety of designs and colours, Patola sarees remain prized possessions, worn mainly for special occasions like weddings. Each handwoven piece takes months of painstaking work.

Types of Patola Sarees

Patola sarees require exceptional skill and patience. Variations in weaving processes result in different styles and appearances.

• Banarasi Patola Saree

  These sarees feature intricate meenakari cutwork. Unlike the typical tie-and-dye Patola sarees from Gujarat, Banarasi Patola sarees possess lustrous fabric and display geometric ikat designs.

• Patan Patola Saree

  Patan Patola uses double ikat (resist dye technique on both warp and weft) to create vibrant, colourful patterns. The pre-dyed threads result in flawless alignment, forming intricate motifs. These are among the finest double ikat sarees. You can shop for heritage Patan Patola sarees at KALKI online.

• Rajkot Patola Saree

  Rajkot Patola sarees are known for their unique design, weave, and colour. They are considered the most authentic and luxurious pure silk sarees for women. Unlike Patan Patola, Rajkot Patola employs only vertical resist dying (single ikat).

  Distinguished by traditional patterns like elephants, honeycomb, batik, and ikat, Surat Patola sarees celebrate cultural motifs. They come in fantastic colour combinations with authentic borders and are a matter of pride for Gujarat.

• Hyderabadi Patola Saree Collection

  These sarees are crafted from pure handloom silk, also referred to as Patan or Ikat Patola. Traditional prints and fancy zari borders define the Hyderabadi Patola saree collection.
