Discover batik sarees with wax-resist art, folk motifs and Kantha accents on silk, tussar and cotton.
What is batik?
Batik is a wax-resist dyeing technique. Artisans draw designs with hot wax, dye the fabric and then remove the wax, leaving patterns with a characteristic crackle effect.
In Bengal, batik has a long association with Santiniketan, and it remains a favourite for artistic, one-of-a-kind sarees.
Our batik collection
You will find batik on Bishnupuri silk, tussar and cotton, with tribal and Warli-inspired motifs, floral borders and hand Kantha embroidered pallus.
Frequently asked questions
Why does each batik saree look slightly different?
The wax cracks naturally during dyeing, so the crackle lines and colour depth vary from piece to piece.
How do I wash a batik saree?
Dry clean silk batik. Hand wash cotton batik separately in cold water for the first few washes, as some colour may bleed.
