The Patola saree made in Patan, Gujarat is made of silk. About 700 years old Patola saree is the specialty of Gujarat. In the olden days, this sari was worn in the royal houses. The work of this saree is very fine and it takes at least 6 months to make a sari.
First, the whole sari is made from silk and then vegetable or color is dyed on it. In the weaving of the whole sari, a single thread is threaded in the form of different colors according to the design. The cost of a Patola sari ranges from 20 thousand to 2 lakhs.
The Patola sari, which has been running since the Mughal era, was reduced at one time due to its high cost, but the increasing desire for handloom has re-established its identity among the people. This sari has been going on for generations, so it would not be an exaggeration to call it a historical heritage.
One thing related to this sari is that the skill of making it is taught only to the sons so that when the daughters of the house get married and go somewhere else, the art of the family does not go anywhere. The color of the Patola sari never fades and it lasts for 100 years.
