Dayabhai Vankar

The Eloquent Weaver…

In the era where everyone is fascinated by clothes manufactured using sophisticated machines, Mr. Vankar Dayabhai and his team come as a blessing in disguise for aficionados of handmade apparel. Known for his unparalleled hand-weaved shawls, sarees and mufflers, he strives to pass on his refined art to his mentees to keep the art form alive for the next generations to cherish. Weaving out beautiful designs in vibrant colours is no less than meditation for him. Between the fingers of Mr. Vankar breathes a family tradition that has survived for over 6 generations and made him a proud recipient of the Sant Kabir Award in 2010 and the National Award in 1994.
