Kshyama Sagar The Journey of Sambalpuri: The Saga of an Unending Saree
The story of Sambalpuri weaves is one of mythology and magic. With its roots dipped in the Indian epics and tradition, the Sambalpuri weaves have lasted the test of time owing to the extraordinary craftsmanship of the weavers. It is believed by Padmashree Haldhar Nag, an eminent poet from Odisha that Krishna draped the Sambalpuri around Draupadi, a saree so long that it had no end.
Praised for the immaculate artistry, the Sambalpuri makers are dwellers of Orissa. Unique in the making and exquisite in its designs, the Sambalpuri weave reflects an ancient handicraft called BandhaKala. The yarns are tied in accordance with the desired pattern to prevent absorption of dyes in the other areas. It is then dyed with colours that are made by the artisans. The weaves are praised for their vibrant colours and intricate designs, often inspired by the traditional motifs seen occurring at the major temples of Odisha. More recently, the makers are experimenting with the themes and colours for an enhanced contemporary appeal.
