The handwoven Kosa saree features an interplay of colors and textures, with enchanting shades of blue and white adorning the body. The soft yellow pallu gracefully exhibits intricate Phera technique details, adding an exquisite touch to the overall design.
Technique
Phera is a three-shuttle weaving technique that interlocks the weft of the body of the fabric with the weft of the borders on both sides. This technique is used to create simple straight borders as well as intricate temple borders on saris. Due to its complexity, it requires two weavers to work together in sync. The term "Phera," which means "turn around," refers to the shuttle turning at the point where the two wefts intersect.
