Kota Doriya Saree with Gota Patti Work — Black | Handwoven Rajasthani Silk-Cotton Saree
Timeless, dramatic, and effortlessly regal — the Kota Doriya Saree in Black with Gota Patti work is for the woman who knows that true elegance needs no excess. The deep black base of this handwoven Kota Doria fabric carries the signature lightweight breathability and delicate checkered texture (“khats”) the weave is famous for, while the hand-applied Gota Patti embroidery on the border and pallu adds a warm, shimmering contrast that turns every drape into a statement.
Craftsmanship & Materials
Kota Doria (also spelled Kota Doriya) is a GI-tagged handloom fabric from Kota, Rajasthan, woven on traditional pit looms using fine interlocking cotton and silk threads. The distinctive “khat” pattern — a subtle open-square weave — creates a fabric that is semi-sheer, feather-light, and exceptionally breathable, making it a favourite for warm seasons and long festive days. Each saree is adorned with Gota Patti work — a traditional Rajasthani embellishment technique where fine strips of gold or silver ribbon are hand-stitched onto the fabric in floral, paisley, or geometric motifs along the border and pallu. Against the rich black base, the gold Gota detailing creates a striking contrast that is both classic and contemporary.

The Heritage Behind the Fabric
Kota Doria weaving has been practised in and around Kota, Rajasthan, for over three centuries. Originally developed for the royal courts of Rajputana, these sarees were prized for their delicate structure and ability to keep the wearer cool in the desert heat. Today, families of master weavers continue this tradition on handlooms, producing textiles that have earned GI (Geographical Indication) protection. Combined with the artistry of Gota Patti — another Rajasthani craft tradition — this saree is a confluence of two of India’s most celebrated textile heritages.
