The mercerized finish gives the cotton a quiet sheen without altering its handloom character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Craft Behind Vasundhara\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVasundhara is produced through the Bandha technique — a double ikat process known in Odisha as Bandhakala. Before a single thread meets the loom, Bhulia weavers of Odisha resist-dye both warp and weft threads in precise sequences, binding sections with tight ties so that dye penetrates only where intended. When the threads are finally woven together, the motifs — flower forms on the body, fish along the border, phula lata across the pallu — emerge in alignment across both axes simultaneously. This level of motif registration demands exacting calculation and takes 10 to 15 days on the loom for cotton. Vasundhara carries the GI certified Sambalpuri saree mark, confirming its origin and craft integrity under the Sambalpuri Handloom GI tag. Every Pasapali saree also holds the Government of India Handloom Mark.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWearing Vasundhara\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMercerized cotton drapes with a moderate body — structured enough to hold pleats cleanly, light enough to move without resistance through a full day. The fabric breathes well and softens further with each wash, settling into the wearer over time. The purple body with traditional flower motifs reads with presence at a Sambalpuri saree for wedding gathering, while the measured weight and cool hand make it equally suited as a Sambalpuri cotton saree for office wear. The black pallu with phula lata motifs anchors the drape visually, offering a considered finish for a Sambalpuri saree for puja. The fish border frames the hem without dominating — a detail that rewards close attention.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eVasundhara is part of the Pasapali collection of original Sambalpuri cotton sarees, each sourced directly from Bhulia weavers of Odisha.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"ftbl\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eProduct Name\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVasundhara\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSaree Type\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSambalpuri Bandha\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eTradition\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSambalpuri 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\u003eBandha (Double Ikat) — Bandhakala\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMaterial\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMercerized Cotton\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eThread Count\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWarp 120 \/ Weft 120\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\u003eBlack\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBody Design\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTraditional flower motifs all over the purple body\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBorder\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFish motif border\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePallu\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePhula lata motifs all over black pallu\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eKey Motifs\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFlower (body), Fish (border), Phula Lata \/ floral vine (pallu)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWoven By\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBhulia weavers, Odisha\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWeave Time\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e10–15 days\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eGI Tag\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSambalpuri Handloom\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\u003eWedding, Puja, Office, Festive occasions\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    Vasundhara is part of Pasapali's collection of \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/pasapali.com\/collections\/all\"\u003eSambalpuri 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":47984064921774,"sku":"PS-MC-PUR-BLA","price":11800.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0512\/5855\/6590\/files\/vasundhara-vasundhara-purple-sambalpuri-bandha-sambalpuri-cot-1.jpg?v=1781453866","url":"https:\/\/pasapali.com\/products\/vasundhara-purple-sambalpuri-bandha-sambalpuri-cotton-saree","provider":"Pasapali","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
