Majhir Gaan — the boatman's song.
A man rows his boat among palm trees.
A landscape built in thread.
Stitched by hand.
On a plain beige Gachi Tussar ground, multicolour Kantha embroidery forms a boatman rowing among palm trees.
The natural silk becomes the open ground for the scene.
Along the skirt runs a multicolour floral border, bringing a different rhythm to the lower edge.
Then the pallu tells the story at full scale.
The boatman and palm tree motifs return in multicolour across the pallu, turning the end of the saree into its most narrative section.
Boat.
Palms.
Flowers.
A river scene carried across cloth.
According to the supplied craft information, Kantha is the running-stitch embroidery tradition of Bengal. Worked entirely by hand, row upon row of small stitches build figures, flowers and scenes across the cloth while giving its surface a gentle ripple.
Majhir Gaan is worked in Nichubandhgora, Santiniketan (Bolpur, Birbhum), West Bengal, with a supplied making time of approximately 4–6 months.
The blouse piece is beige Gachi Tussar with a multicolour floral border, carrying the saree's floral language into the blouse.
A saree that carries a whole landscape.
