Baluchari Saree Designs – an art in six yards
They are what almost all women from Bengal dream of possessing— Baluchari saris (six yards of cotton, silk or synthetic textile woven around the body by Indian women). Designed in shimmery silk, depicting scenes from mythology or simple flowers or motifs, woven in contrasting colours— they are what dreams are made of.
