Bangalore Silk Kalamkari Dupatta Blue Figurative Design 2
Ornate arched panels filled with groups of figures define this turquoise Pen Kalamkari Bangalore silk dupatta. Pink columns, rounded flowering forms and a maroon border create a richly divided composition across the bright blue ground.
Figures within and above decorative arches
Seated and standing figures gather beneath the arches, with smaller attendants facing towards them. More crowned figures appear above the curved canopies, surrounded by clusters of cream and lilac blossoms. Yellow, green, pink and purple details distinguish the clothing and ornaments, while the repeated columns give each group its own framed space.
Hand-drawn and hand-painted Kalamkari brings fine outlines and closely worked details to the Bangalore silk. At the end, a cream floral band carries large pink and orange blooms above coloured hanging motifs. Pair the dupatta with a plain maroon or cream kurta to give the architectural figure work room to stand out.
