-
Colour - A beautiful shot colour with a warp of Black and a weft of Magenta
-
Technique - A classic handwoven Banarasi Paithani; a technique that uses zari to form a rich golden ground, adorned by beautiful Meenakari work, the painstaking addition of supplementary coloured threads during the hand-weaving process. An enduring Kadwa weave and fine Meenakari technique. The elaborate and laborious Kadwa (Kadhua) technique involves hand-weaving each motif separately. It takes longer on the handloom, but makes a more robust pattern, which stands out on the fabric.
-
Fabric - Soft as butter, pure Katan Silk
-
Speciality - Banarasi weavers have sought inspiration in India's rich and varied regions and made this beautiful classic their own. This saree has an intricate Paithani style border and Aanchal.
-
Tilfi Promise - Pure. Handloom. Banaras.
Since this product is handwoven, there might be slight irregularities. But don't you think these add to the singular charm of a handloom beauty?
