This saree was bought many years ago, during my second visit to Calcutta. I had spent all my college years in Calcutta. After graduation, we left that place and after that I never had the opportunity of visiting that place again.
Many years later, (25 years of marriage) we were visiting Sikkim, we had a brief stop at Calcutta, and it was then, I shopped and shopped like anything, visiting places there, eating lots of puchkas, etc., travelling by Trams, and the Metro, and having lots of fun.
It was at that time I bought 2 cotton sarees, and one of them is this saree. I always remember my life in Calcutta whenever, I wear Calcutta sarees This is a very simple saree, but whether simple or grand Calcutta sarees always look very elegant and good.
