The bark of the aal tree is harvested, boiled down into a dye bath, and the Tussar Cotton Silk fibres are soaked in successive rounds until the colour bonds into the thread — no synthetic fixatives, no chemical accelerants. The Mirgan tribal weavers of Odisha have practised this vegetable dye tradition across generations, working on pit looms with handspun cotton and silk yarn. The earthy depth of the purple here — edging toward maroon at the border — is inseparable from this process. No two pieces dye identically. That variation is not a flaw; it is evidence of the authentic Kotpad handloom process at work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWearing Tamasa\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTussar Cotton Silk carries a texture that sits between the crispness of cotton and the quiet sheen of tussar — it drapes with a natural body, holds its pleats, and stays comfortable across long hours of wear. The weight is composed, not heavy. This makes Tamasa a considered choice as a Kotpad saree for ethnic wear at formal and semi-formal occasions alike. The tribal motifs on the pallu read clearly at a distance, making it a fitting Kotpad saree for festivals where the weave should be visible in movement. As a natural dyed saree for gifting, Tamasa carries a story the receiver can trace — the bark, the weaver, the loom — which gives it a significance that outlasts the occasion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTamasa is part of Pasapali's commitment to original Kotpad saree online access, connecting buyers directly with the Mirgan weaving tradition of Odisha.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"ftbl\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eProduct Name\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTamasa\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 — Aal Bark Dyeing with Interlocking Border Weave\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMaterial\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTussar Cotton Silk\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\u003ePurple\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSecondary Colour\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDeep Maroon\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBody Design\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStripes all over body with fish buta\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBorder\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePhoda Kumbha using interlocking technique\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePallu\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eKotpad tribal motifs — fish, tortoise, temple, tribal motif\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eKey Motifs\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFish, Tortoise, Temple, Tribal Motif, Fish Buta\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWoven By\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMirgan Tribal Weavers, 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    Tamasa 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":47928139743406,"sku":"PS-TC-PUR-MRN-01","price":25400.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0512\/5855\/6590\/files\/tamasa-tamasa-purple-kotpad-saree-natural-dye-tussar-cott-1.jpg?v=1780224145","url":"https:\/\/pasapali.com\/products\/tamasa-purple-kotpad-saree-natural-dye-tussar-cotton-silk","provider":"Pasapali","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
