The art of the
handwoven
saree

Sarama Tikader studied textile design at Visva-Bharati University, Santiniketan — the institution founded by Rabindranath Tagore where art, nature, and daily life are inseparable. It is here that she learnt to see the loom not as a machine, but as a living conversation between human hands and thread.

Her designs honour the weavers of Bengal — from the Tant masters of Nadia to the Baluchari creators of Bishnupur — elevating their heritage while making it wearable for the modern woman. Every saree tells a story; every border carries a memory.

Sarama works directly with weaving cooperatives, ensuring fair wages and living traditions pass from one generation to the next.
