Kota sarees
Kota saree is made at kota, Rajasthan. Sarees are made of pure cotton and silk and have square like
patterns known as khats on them. The chequered weave of a Kota sari is very popular. They are very fine
weaves and weigh very less.
Kota sarees are called Masuria because they were once woven in Mysore. The weavers migrated to
Kaithoon, near Kota, and the sarees came to be known as 'Kota-Masuria'.
Kota saree is woven on a traditional pit loom in such a fashion that it produces square checks pattern on
the fabric. The delicately wrought checks are locally known as khats. They smear onion juice and rice
paste with a lot of care into the yarn making the yarn so strong that no additional finishing is needed.
Cotton for the Kota Saree comes from Madhya Pradesh while the silk, which once came from Karnataka,
is now procured from other places as well.
The procedure of making this fabric involves winding, warping, dyeing, sizing, drafting, denting, piercing
and finally design setting. This is the most open weave fabric woven in India. Kota doria cotton fabrics
have the fine texture, durability and light in weight.
Weavers take up three Sarees of the same design at a time. The setting-up of the threads will take a day
because it is complicated and time-consuming. Making of design of the saree is also very complicate so
it will take close to a week to complete three saris in the basic pattern. Weaving was done mostly by
women.
Rajasthan Handloom Development Corporation (RHDC) has made efforts to popularize the unique skills
of the KotaDoria. Various permutations and combinations of the silk and cotton threads, produce
unique and complicated designs.
The Kota cotton saree is preferred for its light weight, softness and airy comfort.
Pure Cotton with golden Zari threads woven in square patterns is a popular variety. Variations in borders
and a whole array of bright colours and shades like pink, blue, saffron, orange etc. applied to traditional
prints and beautiful embroidery work create stunning effects. This Kota saree is suitable for daily casual,
corporate offices, colleges and family get-togethers.
Designer Kota Supernet Saree adorned by zari flower work and having zari brocade border with elegant
pallu is choice wear for weddings, bridal attire, corporate office parties, college events.
