Siddipet Gollabhama

Siddipet Gollabama sarees are highly recognized for their unique and exquisite inlay technique and motifs, particularly the Gollabama motif. The motif is a figure of a milkmaid of the golla community carrying a pot on her head and another in her hand, which is woven into the pallu of all Siddipet Gollabama sarees.

These women dress in brightly colored skirts and veils, and while carrying pots of milk and curd, their attire is a true reflection of their vibrant culture and traditions. The intricate Gollabama sarees are neither embroidered nor printed but are meticulously hand-woven into the border with extraordinary skill.

Siddipet Gollabama cotton sarees have a rough texture, but they are finished with a glaze. The colors used in the yarn are renowned for their durability and long-lasting quality. The conception of design, its layout, orientation, choice of colors for the body, pallu, border, and the Gollabama requires great creativity, experience, skill, and patience on the part of the weaver.
