This contemporary saree pairs a deliberately plain body with a richly worked pallu. Its design traces the moon through a sequence of slender crescents, widening arcs, and a luminous full circle at the centre, before returning to the gentle curve of the crescent. Fine floral details gather within each phase, creating a sense of movement across the pallu, like the moon waxing and waning through the night.
-
Colour: A striking Navy Blue
-
Technique: An enduring Kadwa weave. 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: Pure Katan Silk
-
Collection Note: At the heart of the collection is the chand booti, one of the most heritage-rich motifs of Banarasi weaving. The collection explores a poetic duality, bringing soft, atmospheric lunar imagery to life through the exacting craftsmanship and enduring discipline of traditional handloom artistry.
-
Tilfi Promise: Pure. Handloom. Banaras.
- Note:The saree comes with its own blouse piece. The model is wearing a separate blouse for styling purposes. The saree comes finished with fall facing and trims.
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?
