The motifs, anchal and border are all woven in zari — the Banarasi border runs steady along both selvedges and the anchal carries an anchor motif in keeping with the field. Handwoven in Varanasi on a traditional pit loom.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA Shikargah composition asks the loom to behave like a painter's hand — every leaf, vine and figure placed exactly, with no embroidery to correct it afterward. Hours stack into days at the loom, and the discipline of placement is what keeps the piece reading as a single, unbroken field of zari.\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 it in the classic Nivi style to let the Shikargah field unfold along the body, with the anchal pleated to fall open over the shoulder. Pair with kundan or polki — antique-gold tones sit closer to the maroon ground than yellow gold. A tonal maroon silk blouse, or an ivory raw-silk blouse for contrast, keeps the focus on the weave.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ctable style=\"width:100%; border-collapse:collapse; margin:1.8em 0; font-family:inherit;\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:12px 24px 12px 0; border-bottom:1px solid #e5dccb; font-weight:500; color:#5C3A1E; letter-spacing:0.04em; text-transform:uppercase; font-size:0.82em; vertical-align:top; width:32%;\"\u003eWeave\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:12px 0; border-bottom:1px solid #e5dccb; color:#2D2D2D; vertical-align:top;\"\u003eKadhua, Jangla, Shikargah\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:12px 24px 12px 0; border-bottom:1px solid #e5dccb; font-weight:500; color:#5C3A1E; letter-spacing:0.04em; text-transform:uppercase; font-size:0.82em; vertical-align:top; width:32%;\"\u003eMotif\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:12px 0; border-bottom:1px solid #e5dccb; color:#2D2D2D; vertical-align:top;\"\u003eScrolling vines, florals, Shikargah figures in continuous Jangla layout\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:12px 24px 12px 0; border-bottom:1px solid #e5dccb; font-weight:500; color:#5C3A1E; letter-spacing:0.04em; text-transform:uppercase; font-size:0.82em; vertical-align:top; width:32%;\"\u003eZari\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:12px 0; border-bottom:1px solid #e5dccb; color:#2D2D2D; vertical-align:top;\"\u003eZari motifs across the body, anchal and border\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:12px 24px 12px 0; border-bottom:1px solid #e5dccb; font-weight:500; color:#5C3A1E; letter-spacing:0.04em; text-transform:uppercase; font-size:0.82em; vertical-align:top; width:32%;\"\u003eBorder \u0026amp; Anchal\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:12px 0; border-bottom:1px solid #e5dccb; color:#2D2D2D; vertical-align:top;\"\u003eIntricate Banarasi border framing the drape; anchal in keeping with the body, with anchor motif\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:12px 24px 12px 0; border-bottom:1px solid #e5dccb; font-weight:500; color:#5C3A1E; letter-spacing:0.04em; text-transform:uppercase; font-size:0.82em; vertical-align:top; width:32%;\"\u003eColour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:12px 0; border-bottom:1px solid #e5dccb; color:#2D2D2D; vertical-align:top;\"\u003eMaroon\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:12px 24px 12px 0; border-bottom:1px solid #e5dccb; font-weight:500; color:#5C3A1E; letter-spacing:0.04em; text-transform:uppercase; font-size:0.82em; vertical-align:top; width:32%;\"\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:12px 0; border-bottom:1px solid #e5dccb; color:#2D2D2D; vertical-align:top;\"\u003ePure Silk\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:12px 24px 12px 0; border-bottom:1px solid #e5dccb; font-weight:500; color:#5C3A1E; letter-spacing:0.04em; text-transform:uppercase; font-size:0.82em; vertical-align:top; width:32%;\"\u003eMeasurement\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:12px 0; border-bottom:1px solid #e5dccb; color:#2D2D2D; vertical-align:top;\"\u003e5.5 metres saree with 0.8 metre blouse piece\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:12px 24px 12px 0; font-weight:500; color:#5C3A1E; letter-spacing:0.04em; text-transform:uppercase; font-size:0.82em; vertical-align:top; width:32%;\"\u003eOrigin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:12px 0; color:#2D2D2D; vertical-align:top;\"\u003eHandwoven in Varanasi\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\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;\"\u003eCaring for Your Handloom\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"font-style:italic; color:#6b6b6b; margin:0 0 1em;\"\u003eA handloom saree is not just worn — it is preserved, rested, and cared for over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAfter wearing, allow the saree to settle gently.
