An exploration and interpretation of our rich, varied and magnificent heritage. On a lustrous drape of pure Katan silk, this saree has traditional Banarasi Kadwa bootis expertly balanced in their size and proportions, colourful hints of Meenakari, and an opulent zari-woven pallu and border.
-
Color - A timeless shade of Navy Blue
-
Technique - 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. Meenakari involves the painstaking addition of supplementary coloured resham threads during the hand-weaving process.
-
Fabric - Soft as butter, pure Katan silk
-
Tilfi Promise - Pure. Handloom. Banaras.
- Note - The saree comes with its own blouse piece. The model is wearing a separate blouse for styling purposes.
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?
