Origin and History of Patola Saree:
Patola sarees originated in the town of Patan in Gujarat. It is assumed that 700 silk weavers of the Salvi caste of Karnataka and Maharashtra moved to Gujarat in the 12th century to acquire the patronage of the Solanki Rajputs, the ruling class of Gujarat and parts of Rajasthan at that time. Patola sarees are a prized possession, worn exclusively on special occasions like vedic rituals and weddings. These sarees are considered sacred and divine. Its immense value is not just because of its intricacy but also because of the tremendous amount of skill and perseverance that goes into making it.
