The weave

What makes a Kuthampully saree special

Kuthampully is a village in Thiruvilwamala, Thrissur district, and one of Kerala's best-known centres of traditional handloom weaving. Its weavers make light, breathable cotton and tissue sarees and set mundus, finished with the gold-toned kasavu borders Kerala is known for.

Every piece is woven by hand on a loom, so no two are identical. Slight differences in texture and tone are part of what makes a handloom piece, and it is why handloom feels different from mill-made cloth.

At Bodhivastra we buy directly from Kuthampully weavers and show each piece with its real photographs, fabric and price, so you know exactly what you are ordering.

Buying guide

Choosing a handloom saree

  • ◆Check the fabric listing. Each product page states the fabric (cotton, tissue and so on) and colour, so you can compare pieces like for like.
  • ◆Expect natural variation. Handwoven cloth has small irregularities and slight shade differences between pieces. This is normal for handloom.
  • ◆Look at the border. Kasavu borders are woven into the saree. Zoom into the product photos to see the weave up close.
  • ◆Ask before you order. Not sure about a shade or drape? Message us and we will send more photos or a short video.
