Sage Green Saree Hand Print

The first week of the Goan monsoon turns everything sage green. The paddy fields that were brown and cracked in April fill with water and then, almost overnight, with the most extraordinary soft green, not the bright green of new leaves, but the quieter, dustier green of a landscape exhaling after months of heat. It is our founder's favourite colour in the world, and it anchors this collection. Our sage green hand print sarees are printed in Bagru, Rajasthan using azo free dyes that capture this particular, unhurried shade, not lime, not olive, but the exact green of a Goan paddy field in June. Custom wooden blocks carry botanical motifs, bird prints and geometric forms onto mul cotton, linen and Chanderi, each impression placed by an artisan hand.

Sage green works with almost everything, a natural tone that belongs to the earth and asks very little of the woman who wears it. The kind of colour that makes people lean in and ask what shade it is.Free shipping India. Pre-washed, with matching blouse piece.
