Venkatagiri Cotton Checks With Border - Kora

This fine cotton saree is made in Venkatagiri. This saree perfectly captures weaving traditions of old Venkatagiri, known for their fine count, muslin cotton bodies woven with stripes and checks of zari. Only highly skilled weavers can achieve this feat of weaving the saree without the metallic zari cutting through the cotton threads.
These sarees have been created with Malavika Singh who remembers wearing these pure cotton, Venkatagiri sarees as a young girl.
