Silk sari, Venkatagiri, Andhra Pradesh
Jacquard-type sari border
This is a relatively simple sari border created on a Jacquard loom. We are in the small town of Venkatagiri. A place rarely visited by tourist groups. We go here because it is famous for it's fine silks and cottons and the pleasant folk who make and sell these gorgeous things.
