Kasuti Bhavya Neeli Silk 8x12 Cushion Cover

Of grandeur. Of glory. Of magnificence. Our 8x12 cushion in tones of yellow and blue has delicate motifs hand embroidered on it. The cushion is designed to hold the Kasuti patch between two broad borders of Khunn in pure mulberry silk, showing off the “Teru” or chariot motif. On a festival day, the whole village would congregate to celebrate the religious and social occasion together, while their dear Lord would be carried in all of his or her splendour, decorated in the best of silks, jewellery and flowers, carried in the grand chariot. It is this very moment that the weaver captures in the form of the intricate weave.

Now let’s move to our Kasuti embroiderers and see how exquisitely they translate the chariot in the form of the “Ratha” that is pulled by devotees. If you pay attention to the 16x16 cushion covers, you can see how beautifully the details such as the men pulling the chariot, the wheels and the chariot itself in all its grandeur is captured in this quaint embroidery form. KaleNele works with a group of women who are based in Dharwad and who come from distressed lives and backgrounds. We train them through a NGO called RAPID, so that it can help them have a livelihood. Each purchase goes a long way in supporting our mission.

This panel is attached to plain pure mulberry silk fabric handwoven in clusters that weave our Ilkal sarees. The design is uplifted by the use of Khunn fabrics in pure mulberry silk that bring their own story. We take so much pleasure in introducing our latest, most exclusive collection of silk cushion covers that derive their beauty and essence from age-old hand weaving and embroidery art forms. These are not mere cushion covers but each one is a piece of art, a conversation starter, the pride of the land we come from. Each one tells a story from its birth to its maturity as a perfectly finished thing of beauty. Each has soul.

Coordinated plain back with lining and zipper fastener.
