ILKAL SAREES

Ilkal Sarees can be traced back to 600 AD and continues to be woven, worn, and celebrated even today. Ilkal sarees are a staple wear of the women of North Karnataka. The name Karnataka comes from black cotton soil on which cotton is grown, to make these sarees. With over a 1,000-year history, the weave has gone through several changes. The goddesses have adorned the weave, several royal seamstresses and weavers have changed the design palette, and hundreds of dark colors have been tried. This weave is so soft that pre-worn Ilkal sarees are often used a soft bedding for newborn babies, to cradle them to sleep. Such is the versatility of the weave. The markets are flooded with machine-made, synthetic look-alikes. 

We, at Aasiwun, however, strive to get to your, sarees weaved using traditional methods and natural fibers. That is why, our sarees are made of cotton and only a little viscose goes into the making of the borders. The characteristic pallu is made from pure silk. Hundreds of women have draped this saree. Come explore our collection of hand-loom Ilkal sarees

Dear Aasiwun

Namaskara,🙏😇🤗
I loved my saree which is of Khadi silk handcrafted with Purple 🟣 🧡 Orange Border with Sap green body.
It added extra elegance, beauty to the special occasion.
I love the collections of Aasiwun because they give so much importance to the Bharatiya articulation of hand woven fabric and designs deep rooted to Indian weavers which reflects our culture and heritage.
It makes me a proud customer to be part of Aasiwun Family.
Love 💞

A “must have” piece in your collection!

Such an elegant piece with a touch of tradition! The saree has a rich textured feel when worn. It has a graceful natural golden shade and the border and pallu weaves stand out on this background! I paired my saree with a contrast red blouse from Aasiwun’s collection which got a lot of compliments during a family wedding. Will definitely urge ladies to have this unique piece in their collection! Aasiwun, you stole my heart once again with this saree and the blouse I got! Kudos to you!
