{"product_id":"bhoomi-off-white-kotpad-saree-natural-dye-cotton","title":"Bhoomi — Kotpad Saree Off-White Cotton Saree","description":"\u003cp\u003eBhoomi is a Kotpad handloom saree you can buy online directly from the Mirgan tribal weavers of Odisha — woven in off-white handspun cotton and dyed with aal bark to carry earthy, grounded tones. The body holds macha (fish) and pharsa (axe) motifs rendered through the extra-weft technique, while the kumbha border rises in a solid temple form through multi-shuttle interlocking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Craft Behind Bhoomi\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBhoomi belongs to the GI certified Kotpad textile tradition practised by Mirgan tribal weavers in Kotpad, Odisha. The dyeing process begins with the bark of the aal tree (Morinda citrifolia), which is boiled in water to release its tannin-rich pigment. Handspun cotton fibres are soaked repeatedly in this extract, with each immersion deepening the colour. No synthetic mordants or chemicals are introduced — the fibres fix the dye through a natural, time-governed process passed down within the community. This vegetable dye tradition is what gives authentic Kotpad handloom its characteristic warm, muted palette that deepens with age rather than fading.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWearing Bhoomi\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHandspun cotton carries an honest weight — not stiff, not slack, but present in the hand and settled on the shoulder. Bhoomi drapes with a quiet steadiness, the weave holding its form through a full day of wear. As a Kotpad saree for ethnic wear, it reads as considered rather than ornamental. As a Kotpad saree for festivals, the macha and pharsa motifs carry cultural weight that printed or synthetic alternatives cannot replicate. As a natural dyed saree for gifting, Bhoomi offers something specific: a documented craft tradition, a named community, and a process rooted in the land of Odisha. The motifs on the pallu and body belong to the wearer as much as to the loom.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBhoomi is part of the Pasapali collection of original Kotpad sarees online — each piece sourced directly from the Mirgan community of Odisha.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"ftbl\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eProduct Name\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBhoomi\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSaree Type\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eKotpad Natural Dye Saree\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eTradition\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eKotpad Handloom (GI Certified)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWeave\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHandloom\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eTechnique\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOrganic Vegetable Dye Weaving; Extra-Weft; Multi-Shuttle Interlocking\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMaterial\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHandspun Cotton\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSaree Length\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5.40 metres\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSaree Breadth\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e43 inches\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBlouse\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes (included)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePrimary Colour\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOff-White\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSecondary Colour\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRed\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBody Design\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMacha (fish) and pharsa (axe) tribal motifs — extra-weft technique\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBorder\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eKumbha — raised solid temple form via extra-weft and multi-shuttle interlocking\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePallu\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIntricate tribal motifs — macha (fish) and pharsa (axe) — extra-weft technique\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eKey Motifs\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMacha (fish), Pharsa (axe), Kumbha (temple)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWoven By\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMirgan Tribal Weavers, Kotpad, Odisha\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWeave Time\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e25–30 days\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eGI Tag\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eKotpad Textile\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCertification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGovernment of India Handloom Mark\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eIdeal For\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEthnic wear, festivals, gifting\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n  \u003chr\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eExplore More Handloom Sarees\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    Bhoomi is part of Pasapali's collection of \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/pasapali.com\/collections\/all\"\u003eKotpad Handloom sarees\u003c\/a\u003e from Odisha.\n    Read the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/pasapali.com\/pages\/about-us\"\u003estory behind the brand\u003c\/a\u003e and the weavers who make them.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pasapali","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49375877562542,"sku":"PS-TC-O-065","price":28600.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0512\/5855\/6590\/files\/bhoomi-bhoomi-off-white-kotpad-saree-natural-dye-cotton-7.jpg?v=1789656632","url":"https:\/\/pasapali.com\/products\/bhoomi-off-white-kotpad-saree-natural-dye-cotton","provider":"Pasapali","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
