Blue

Exquisitely hand-woven on a base of high-density Pure Katan Silk, this saree features a classic 'Half-and-Half' aesthetic profile. The turquoise body is adorned with rhythmic leaf-shaped 'Kadhwa' butis in sterling silver zari, providing a soft, sophisticated shimmer. A striking row of large, intricate paisley (Kalki) motifs acts as a transition to the vibrant fuchsia border and pallu. The pallu itself is a triumph of geometry, showcasing a dense and interlocking silver zari diamond jaal that provides a majestic weight and a flawless, structured fall characteristic of heritage Banarasi silks.
