'Dione' Red-Maroon Pure Katan Silk Real Zari Banarasi Handloom Saree

This rich Kadiyal classic artfully contrasts celestial and earthly imagery. At the centre of the pallu, the lion, foliage, and crescent moon create a visual language around the relationship between the natural world and the elements that inhabit it. The pallu is framed by koniya accents, carrying this same idea into an intricate arrangement of foliage, while the body is adorned with the chand booti motif in kadhua. Accented with Roopa Sona, the saree brings together detailed handwork, distinct colour, and a deeply interconnected motif vocabulary.

• Colour: A striking Red-Maroon
• Technique: A classic Kadiyal technique with an enduring Kadwa weave. Kadiyal helps achieve a border in a sharply contrasting colour using multiple changes in warp and the weft shuttle. 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 that 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?
