Kaithoon is a small town in the Kota district where Kota Doria is mainly woven. Some clusters of Kota Doria can also be found in villages of Bundi, Baran & Kota, but Kaithoon remains the major hub of its production. 

It’s distinguished look and eminent

square patterns ( known as Khats ) makes Kota Doria so much more interesting. Every weave goes through a dexterous process before it can be finally worn.  

In this article, we will explore how this special weave originated, what are its other characteristics, the process of its weaving, it’s popularity and challenges. We’ll also take a peek into the life of community of artisans in Kaithoon and their challenges. 

One says that the discrete weave was originated in the southern state of Mysore then moved to Rajasthan. It was in the late 17th century, when a Mughal army general and his son Rao Ram Singh aided weavers to migrate to the area.

These weavers were called Masuria and the Kota Doria sarees have since then been also called Kota Masuria sarees as the weaving practice became more entrenched in the Kota district of southeast Rajasthan, primarily in Kaithoon which is located approximately 15 km from Kota.

Kota Doria fabric was once used only as headgear for royalties, but with the passing of time, the use of this fabric for sarees increased as it became seen as auspicious during festivities.
