This unique combination of green and brown cotton Gadwal saree makes a great wear for any occasion … These sarees have a history of its own … Nurtured in a small town called Gadwal in Andhra Pradesh , Gadwal sarees are known for its beautiful mix of fabric and designs …the entire saree is made of cotton while its borders and pallu are made of silk ….designs are attributed to the temples and its architecture ..one can see beautiful and exotic shapes adoring the borders and body of the saree …

This particular saree along with 4 more sarees has story of its own … Year ago I had been to Mantralaya the abode of Raghvendra Swamy along with my daughter … On the way back visited Emmiganuru which is very close to Mantralaya , and to Gadwal where these sarees are woven by the artisans … Most of the people in that small town has spinning looms and it is a feast to watch the art of weaving , the colour combination and the way they intricately weave the Zari… I had a feast in buying … And other interesting thing is I bought the same colour combination for me and my daughter hoping that we would wear the saree together and get photographed … Staying in different places still to accomplish that wish which I hope to soon …
