'Jane Austen'
This Sari showcases a narrative of tradition and the enduring allure of both Banarasi artistry and Piccadilly's serene charm. This Handloom Sari is in a refined Ice Blue colour, a symphony of craftsmanship, featuring Kadiyal, Kadhuwa, and Meenakari work. Crafted with precision, the Kadiyal technique involves hand-weaving the warp and weft separately, enhancing the fabric's weight and drape while Kadhuwa intricately weaves tiny motifs, adding a touch of classic Banarasi charm.
The border of "Jane Austen" boasts very heavy Kadiyal craftsmanship, a visual feast of intricate patterns and textures. French knot and lace Aari embroidery on the border add a delicate touch, creating a harmonious blend of tradition and modern finesse.
These are limited edition Saris and may take time to reach you.
