Branches of Yasmine
Like night-blooming jasmine unfurling in twilight, this saree carries fragrance in its form. A plain body glows in moonlit hues, bordered by silhouettes of trees rendered in meenakari, as if painted by silver light. The pallu unfolds in delicate trails of jasmine blossoms, their quiet brilliance recalling stars scattered against the night. Subtle and fluid, it is an ode to stillness and scented secrets.

Color - 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 Khaddi Georgette
-
Collection note - The night sky becomes a canvas for Banaras’ enduring weaves. Fluid and weightless, georgette lends itself to the quiet grace of twilight, while fine kadhua artistry brings nocturnal blooms and celestial motifs to life. Moonflowers and jasmines, constellations and shifting phases of the moon, each motif emerges in zari and meenakari, a soft echo of dusk and dawn.
