The particular silk painting technique which is used to hand paint this silk scarf is called the SERTI technique. It is the silk painting technique where designs are formed with gutta which is applied to silk. Once the gutta has dried, it acts as a barrier for the dye or paint—keeping the color within the outlined areas of the design.
