The technique requires fabric to be tied in thousands of tiny knots by hand before dyeing — when opened, each knot creates a small undyed dot, and the density of these dots indicates the craftsmanship level. A saree like this can take an artisan 3-4 weeks to complete. The Kutch Bandhani tradition holds Geographical Indication (GI) tag protection.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBorder note:\u003c\/strong\u003e The borders on this saree are 8 inches wide — designed to make the saree's framing a focal point when draped.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow to style this saree:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pair it with traditional gold or temple jewelry to complement the heritage craftsmanship.
