Bird Motif Block Print Saree

Goa is a birder's paradise, the kingfisher at the backwater, the white egret standing still in the paddy field, the brahminy kite circling the coast, the small iridescent sunbird that visits the garden without permission and leaves before you can properly look at it. Our founder watches all of them. And then she draws them. The bird motif block-print saree collection is among the most detailed work Mogasu produces. Each bird is observed and sketched with the care of someone who wants to capture not just the form but the feeling, the stillness of a bird at rest, the energy of one in flight. Each sketch is sent to Bagru, Rajasthan where craftsmen carve it into a custom wooden block built exclusively for Mogasu, with the fine detail that a bird motif requires. Printed by hand on mul cotton, linen and Chanderi using azo-free dyes. Every bird on every saree was placed there by an artisan's hand, one careful impression at a time. Made in small batches. Free shipping to India. Pre-washed, with a matching blouse piece.
