Patteda Anchu is a traditional handloom weave from Karnataka made of pure cotton. Records of the patteda anchu go as far back as the 10th century. It was woven centuries ago in and around the villages. It was considered an auspicious garment, offered to the temple goddess.
Its beauty lies in its understated elegance and simplicity…a simple, coarse cotton weave with a broad border that was traditionally in red and mustard but today available in other colours too.
