A peacock blue and green Banarasi saree in katan silk, carrying a zig-zag jangla layout of scrolling vines and florals across the body, with the Kadhua & Jangla discipline visible in every passage of the drape. The motifs, anchal and border are all woven in zari. Handwoven in Varanasi on a traditional pit loom.
A Jangla layout asks the most of the loom — scrolling vines and florals carried in continuous formation across the entire body, with no resting ground. Holding that density across five and a half metres is what makes Jangla one of the heavier and more expensive Banarasi compositions to commission.
Styling Note
Drape in a Nivi drape so the border and the anchal carry the eye. Pair with antique-gold or polki jewellery and a teal or deep-emerald raw-silk blouse.

Caring for Your Handloom
A handloom saree is not just worn — it is preserved, rested, and cared for over time.
After wearing, allow the saree to settle gently. Dry clean only, so the weave, colour, and zari remain protected. When storing, wrap it in a soft muslin cloth and keep it in a dry place. Zari is delicate and responds to changes in weather; the muslin helps the textile breathe while keeping the weave stable.
Avoid spraying perfume directly onto the saree, as fragrance and alcohol can affect the fabric and zari. Every few months, open it out and let it air naturally for a while — a small ritual that allows the weave to breathe and helps the saree stay beautiful for years.
