Roheda – A Desert Doria Story in Bloom
Syahi Begar Kota Doria Sarees | Handcrafted in Bagru
Introducing Roheda, our newest celebration of heritage and craft. Inspired by the Roheda tree—the vibrant bloom of Rajasthan’s desert—this collection brings together the lightness of Kota Doria with the timeless charm of Syahi Begar block printing from Bagru.
Every saree, stole, and dupatta in the Roheda range is a canvas of natural dyes and hand-carved patterns, reflecting the rhythm of the desert and the artistry of its people.
