  1. Kalamargam PATH FOR ART Email : support@Kalamargam.com Ph. No : 9833895501

  2. Kalamargam literally means ‘path for art’. We are a sustainable accessories and clothing label working with traditional artisans from all over India. It is our endeavour to bring traditional craftspeople to the forefront by putting their craft in the spotlight. We truly believe that we can open new markets for Indian crafts through our design intervention initiatives. Our extensive travel to remote villages across India has helped us understand grass root level issues. We take pride in our women artisans at Kalamargam who are able to augment their family income and educate their children. Email : support@Kalamargam.com Ph. No : 9833895501

  3. Artisan Partners Ikat A lot of artisans are involved in the process of weaving ikat textiles and each process needs a great amount of precision. Every household has a loom and the entire family is involved since the skills have been passed down generations. Master Weaver – translates design from a plotted graph to the yarn. Binder – ties the yarn along the marked areas and ensures that dyes do not penetrate into the resist area. Dyer – ensure the yarns are dyed in vats under the required temperature. Weaver – artisan who produces the final cloth on a pit loom or frame loom. We work with a highly skilled team of independent master weavers and co- operative societies who produce our ikats in serene villages across Telangana State. Email : support@Kalamargam.com Ph.

  5. Handloom Cotton Checks & Stripes - Weaving any kind of pattern on cloth needs precision and is labour intensive. In this process warp and weft yarns interlace alternately. When you see more than one color on the cloth it means the weaver’s hands have moved hundreds of times to change the shuttle. Motifs ( buttas ) – Motifs are created using an extra weft technique. This needs a great amount of skill where the weaver uses an extra yarn and lifts the warp threads in a particular order on the loom. Our finest handloom cottons yardages are produced by a fully owned women’s co-operative spread across remote villages in Andhra Pradesh. Email : support@Kalamargam.com Ph. No : 9833895501

  7. Block Print Hand block printing is a centuries old surface embellishment technique where patterns are created on cloth using wood blocks. This technique is practiced in many regions in India and each region has their own motifs that are inspired by their heritage. Block printing involves several labour-intensive processes some of which are listed below  Extracting dyes from leaves, barks, roots and flowers. Some of them contain medicinal properties such as neem and turmeric  Washing the cloth in natural waterways to get rid of starch  Carving the blocks  Block printing – more the number of colours in the pattern more the effort and precision required Our skilled printers and wood block carvers are spread across Andhra Pradesh and Rajasthan Email : support@Kalamargam.com Ph.
