KHESH Weave
Khesh sarees are one of its kind which its origins in Bengal inspired by truly eco- friendly and sustainable way of weaving. Khesh is in real sense a sustainable weave. Khesh cotton is soft, comfortable and breathable with little coarse textures at places, but surely they will not be pokey.
Khesh is an example of recycling and upcycling of old fabrics. In this weaving process, the wrap is of new fibre while the weft is obtained from old pre loved sarees by tearing them up lengthwise. The entire process is lengthy and time consuming. It may sound easy but in real sense pulling out threads from an already existing saree can be time consuming. Once the threads are pulled out lengthwise, they try to match the thread colours of the weft with the wrap thread shade. The wrap remains the same colour throughout the weaving of the fabric while the weft colour may change and that gives little colour gradation and texture to the fabric. That makes the fabric soft and comfortable. This one is more than a thousand year old weaving technique.
Now they have made their presence in the mainstream more through sarees. However various other products like bed spreads etc are also made with Khesh. These sarees are either sold as it is or they are further enhanced by embroidery, or patch work or mirror work and so on.
Khesh sarees are truly sustainable and also very well qualify as Vegan. The beauty of Khesh lies in creating something better by upcycling already existing and save on resources.

Swades creations have a lot of beautiful collection of sarees and I am very pleased with the quality of the sarees. All the sarees are beautiful and elegant. Parul is a wonderful person. I bought multiple sarees from her, I loved all of them. She personally tracks the parcel after being dispatched, and makes sure I receive the parcel. I would highly recommend Swades Creations.
Excellent customer service and a wide variety of handloom sarees!!
Seeing my Mom & MIL wear Tussars, I always felt Tussar was for 60 plus and that I had a long way to go, but this particular saree made me change my mind. When Parul shared the picture with me casually, I liked the colour and the print as it was very unusual but never thought I would get it for myself. I then went on and bought it for my MIL. However when I received it, tables reversed, my MIL gifted it to me for my birthday and I was thankful she did! As I wore it on my special day “Wolah!!! I fell in love with it even more and with myself:) all over again!!!”. The icing on the cake was the blouse that Parul handpicked and in my opinion it truly added to the oomph!!!! Thank you Parul for this amazing ensemble. May Swades Creations have more such creations that we can mindlessly invest in and treasure for life :)
