We are OG HANDLOOMS
OG Handlooms is where timeless heritage meets refined modern luxury.
Born in Balaramapuram, the historic cradle of Kerala’s royal handloom tradition, we honour centuries-old weaving artistry with contemporary design and elevated simplicity.
Each Veshti and Saree is hand-woven by master artisans of the Balaramapuram, whose lineage traces back to the royal looms of Travancore. With thousands of precise foot-taps and hand-throws in a pit-loom every piece embodies patience, purity, and quiet excellence.
We create veshtis and Sarees not as occasional ethnic wear, but as essential luxury — versatile, graceful, and crafted for those who appreciate understated elegance.
Minimal. Authentic. Iconic.
For the modern gentleman and woman who value culture as deeply as comfort, and tradition as confidently as style.
This is more than a garment.
It is heritage in motion.
It is the Original Garment — reimagined.
Welcome to OG Handlooms.
Wear your legacy, effortlessly.
PHASE 1
The Royal Beginning
Our story begins in the royal kingdom of Travancore, under the reign of Maharaja Avittom Thirunal Balarama Varma (1798–1810). To craft garments worthy of kings and temples, he invited eight master weavers from Nagercoil, Tamil Nadu, to settle in Balaramapuram — thus weaving the first threads of a timeless tradition.
PHASE 2
The Legacy of the Looms
These artisans brought with them unmatched skill in fine cotton and zari weaving. Each piece they created — from royal attire to temple offerings — embodied devotion, precision, and purity. Over generations, their craft became the heartbeat of Balaramapuram, defining Kerala’s most treasured handloom heritage.
PHASE 3
Lineage, Preserved with Honour
Today, our looms still echo their rhythm. Every Veshti and Saree we weave carries the same discipline, artistry, and ancestral pride. At OG Handlooms, we don’t just make fabric — we continue a royal legacy, preserved with honour and woven for modern elegance.
