Craft & Story

Kota Cotton is a lightweight, breathable fabric from Kota, Rajasthan, known for its signature checkered weave called *khats*. Made from pure cotton, it is soft, durable, and ideal for hot climates. Widely used in sarees and dupattas, Kota Cotton combines comfort with traditional elegance, making it a versatile textile choice. Kachi Gotta work is a traditional embroidery technique from Rajasthan, India, where small pieces of gold or silver fabric (called *gottas*) are sewn onto the surface of textiles to create intricate patterns. The *gottas* are often applied with decorative stitching, giving the fabric a rich, shimmering effect. This technique is commonly used on bridal wear, sarees, and lehengas for festive occasions.
