Pasapali Silk

'Pasapali' saree is amongst the most beautiful Sambalpuri sarees. Pasa refers to the ancient game of chess played since Mahabharat times where the dice rolling set on course the fate of the players.

The checkerboard pattern is double ikat- meaning both warp and weft are tied and dyed before weaving. That is why it is classy and timeless- as the similar colors reinforce on each other making the colors stand out on those checks!
