Contributed by Swadesi Knowledge Team

Rajkot Patola is a single-ikat silk saree produced in Rajkot, Gujarat using the ikat resist-dyeing technique on warp threads. Unlike Patan double ikat, Rajkot patola is machine-assisted and more affordable, making it widely accessible. The sarees feature bright geometric patterns on vivid backgrounds of red, green, or maroon silk. Rajkot patola is a staple of Gujarati weddings and cultural events. Hundreds of weaving units in Rajkot employ both traditional handloom and power loom operators.
