Patola saree is a traditional hand-woven saree from the Patan region of Gujarat, India. It is known for its complex double ikat weaving technique, where both the warp and weft threads are resist-dyed before weaving. This results in intricate geometric and floral designs that are unique to each saree. Patola sarees are made of fine silk and are considered to be one of the most expensive sarees in India due to the time-consuming and labor-intensive weaving process. They are typically worn on special occasions and are a symbol of elegance and prestige.
