Collection: Bhujodi Sarees

Bhujodi, a small town few km southeasts of Bhuj, is a major textile centre of Kutch, with the vast majority of the inhabitants involved in textile handicraft production. The Vankars of Bhujodi is primarily involved in cloth weaving. Originally the Vankars used to weave shawls and other communities like Ahirs were involved in the cultivation and grew organic cotton (Kala cotton), which was used to produce cloth. Bhujodi sarees are more recent interpretations in similar styles as the shawls. The saree takes a minimum of 3 to 5 days for weaving. It started with Kala cotton, then fine cotton, the weavers were motivated by immense appreciation received from the Ladies and started experimenting with all varieties of silks, linens and more! Kala Cotton is indigenous cotton from Kutch. It grows in rainfall only and does not need any pesticides, or fertilisers, therefore, are classified as organic cotton khadi/handspun/handwoven.
