Rashmi Bandhej Boutique, a place to get high quality sarees for cheap price.
The word Bandhani/ Bandhni comes from the Hindi/ Sanskrit words ‘Bandhna’ and ‘Bandha’, meaning ‘tying’ or ‘to tie’. Bandhej is a variation of this word. Bandhani refers to the traditional Indian ‘tie and dye‘ art (resist-dyeing technique that uses impermeable threads for tying), used to produce beautiful, fine circular patterns on fabrics. Source
Rashmi Bandhej Boutique is a brand in making.
Bandhani is an ancient art. Earliest references to this technique of picking the cloth with finger-nails and tying, before dyeing, are found in Indus Valley Civilization records, dating back to 4000 B.C.
Bandhani sarees are carefully roll-pressed and finished, before they are sold. Similar process needs to be followed by the wearer, before every wear.
Use only steam iron to iron these sarees. Each Bandhani saree must ONLY be DRY CLEANED (petrol washed), or it will lose its colour. A good quality saree fall must be attached to this saree, as these are delicate sarees.
