Renowned Urdu poet Mirza Ghalib, an eternal lover of mangoes, once told Emperor Bahadur Shah Zafar during a promenade across the mango orchard at Lal-Qila.

"Oh emperor, I have heard from the elders that on every grain is written the name of the one who will eat it. I am checking to see if my ancestors' names are written on any mango."

Heeding his message, the Emperor sent Ghalib a basket full of mangoes the very same day. If we could preserve one thing from summer, it would be the bountiful mangoes, the unrivaled King of Fruits.

In the heart of Gujarat and Rajasthan, where tradition whispers through the ages, Bandhani is born. The term bandhani is derived from the Sanskrit word bandh, which literally and figuratively translates to “to bind, to tie”, as this ancient art, a delicate dance of tie-dye, weaves stories into fabric with every dot and swirl. Each pattern, a poetic echo of skilled hands and rich heritage, tells a tale of beauty and culture.

Our Venkatagiri Bandhani Cotton saree in Bottle Green is accented with bandhani patterns in yellow and white, finished by an eloquent border and pallu of gold zari, capturing the iridescence of summer.

In the verses of Kumarasambhava, the illustrious poet Kalidasa paints a vivid picture of ethereal beauty, likening the gaze of Parvati to the serene bloom of the lotus flower. He poetically explores the interplay between nature and the divine, as he muses whether the timid glances of a fawn draw inspiration from Parvati's captivating gaze, or if it is she who borrows from the gentle elegance of the deer's eyes. Inspired by his enchanting imagery, our creations seek to embody the same ethereal essence, weaving together elements of nature and spirituality in every delicate detail. Just as Kalidasa invites us to contemplate the profound beauty of the natural world, our designs aim to evoke a sense of emotional depth, echoing the poetic intricacy of his verses.

The tactility of traditional sarees that grace against the skin like a light breeze invokes a feeling of tranquillity. As vibrant colours and floral vines converge, adorn the essence of summer achieved on elegant Kanchipuram silks from Kankatala.​
