Ajrakh Saree · Charcoal Black with Rust & Ivory Panels

Block by block. Dip by dip. Ajrakh is one of India's oldest living print traditions — born in the salt flats of Kutch, built through up to fourteen natural-dye steps over several days.

This saree is set on a deep charcoal-black base with hand-block printed motifs in rust red, indigo blue, and soft ivory — alternating vertical and horizontal panels of detailed floral and geometric patterns creating a rhythmic, structured look. The pallu has bold Ajrakh motifs framed by fine striped accents. A contrasting dotted border frames the saree; subtle tassel detailing finishes the edge.

Wash Care
First wash · Soak alone in cold water with one tablespoon of salt for 20 minutes to set the natural dyes.
Ongoing · Hand wash cold, mild detergent, wash darks alone. Do not machine wash, bleach, or wring.
Dry · in shade, flat or wide hanger. Direct sunlight fades natural dyes over time.
Iron · medium heat, reverse side, while slightly damp.
Colour note · Slight variation between pieces is inherent to natural dyeing — not a defect.
