Peach Kadhua Meenadar Munga Silk Handloom Saree
A handwoven Munga silk Banarasi saree in a soft peach, drawn over with Kadhua meenakari — motifs in coloured silk worked alongside the zari. The motifs, anchal and border are all woven in zari, with the meena enamelling the buttis from inside the weave. Handwoven in Varanasi on a traditional pit loom.
Meenadar is what gives the saree its enamel-jewel quality — coloured silk worked into the same composition as the zari, so the motifs read in two materials at once. That layering takes longer at the loom, and the finished cloth carries the look of cloisonné rather than embroidery.
Styling Note
Drape in Nivi to let the meena buttis catch the light evenly. Pair with rose-gold or polki — peach takes pink-gold beautifully. A blush or muted-coral raw silk blouse keeps the palette quiet around the meena.

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.
