{"product_id":"grey-cotton-kadhua-motif-banarasi-handloom-saree","title":"Grey Cotton Kadhua Motif Banarasi Handloom Saree","description":"\u003cp\u003eA cotton Banarasi saree in a soft, mineral grey, with Kadhua motifs placed thread by thread across the body and a Banarasi border framing the drape. Cotton carries the weave with a quieter sheen than silk, and the gold motifs read clearly against the muted ground. The motifs, anchal and border are all woven in zari — set into the body of the cloth, with Dampaj used to lay the motifs into the cotton. Handwoven in Varanasi on a traditional pit loom.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe motif placement here is deliberate; nothing is added on. The weaver works the figure into the textile thread by thread, building the composition row by row at the loom. That patience is the textile's luxury — and the reason a Banarasi like this is collected rather than consumed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"margin:2.2em 0 0.5em; font-weight:500; color:#5C3A1E; letter-spacing:0.05em; text-transform:uppercase; font-size:0.85em;\"\u003eStyling Note\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDrape Nivi-style for a clean, structured fall; cotton holds a crisp pleat.
