The hand work Gota Patti
More on gota pattiRibbon appliqué · Rajasthan
Gota patti folds flat metallic ribbon into petals and leaves and stitches them down into fields of flowers. Lighter than zardozi and brilliantly festive — it dances in candlelight, which is why it belongs to sangeets and mehendis.

Dhoop Chhaon was made for one body, in premium silk, for garba nights. Nothing here is stock, so nothing here is sold out. Any piece can be made again in your size and your colour.
Asked about this piece
Can Dhoop Chhaon be made in my size?
That is the only way it is made. Dhoop Chhaon is not a stock piece waiting to be altered — it would be cut for you from your own measurements in premium silk. If you are in or near Vadodara that means fittings as the piece is built; if you are not, measurements are taken with you on a video call of about twenty minutes and the finished chaniya choli is couriered.
Can Dhoop Chhaon be made in a different colour?
Yes. Gota is ribbon, so the appliqué and the ground are chosen together — a change of colour changes both, and it is decided at the sketch. Tell us the colour you have in mind, or the one you are trying to sit beside, and we will work to it.
Is Dhoop Chhaon still available to order?
Yes. Nothing in this studio is made in advance, so there is no stock to be out of — Rang Raas is a record of work, not a rack that empties. Gota patti is ribbon appliqué worked in bands by hand, which is why it reads from a distance without carrying much weight. Any piece photographed here can be made now, to your measure.
