Description

Odisha Ikat is a kind of ikat a resist dyeing technique, originating from Indian state of Odisha. Also known as “Bandha of Odisha”, it is a geographically tagged product of Odisha since 2007. It is made through a process of tie-dying the warp and weft threads to create the design on the loom prior to weaving. It is unlike any other ikat woven in the rest of the country because of its design process, which has been called “poetry on the loom”  This design is in vogue only at the western and eastern regions of Odisha; similar designs are produced by community groups called the Bhulia, Kostha Asani, and Patara.  The fabric gives a striking curvilinear appearance. Sarees made out of this fabric feature bands of brocade in the borders and also at the ends, called anchal or pallu. Its forms are purposefully feathered, giving the edges a “hazy and fragile” appearance.
