Inspired by the hunting scenes in the jungle, Shikargah sarees depict animals, birds in a jungle and often Royals on horse and elephant backs chasing deers and tigers.
A true handloom Banarasi Shikargah saree is truly a piece of art. It requires a skilled and experienced craftsman with immense patience and dedication to weave a true Banarasi shikargah saree.
A Banarasi Shikargah can be woven both in a Kadhua and Fekua technique, with the Kadhua ones being much more expensive than the Fekua (or cutwork) sarees.
A visual treat when draped, these sarees look both rich and elegant and are perfect for special occasions and even for a bride on her wedding day!
Here are some beautiful pictures of woven looking beautiful in Banarasi shikargah sarees.
