A handwoven Banarasi Katan silk saree in peach with a warm yellow lift, the field carrying thread-by-thread Kadhua motifs across the drape and an intricate Banarasi border running along every edge. The motifs, anchal and border are all woven in zari, the anchal carrying the same vocabulary forward with an anchor motif. Handwoven in Varanasi on a traditional pit loom.
Every butti is its own act of weaving — a Kadhua piece does not borrow motifs from one part of the loom and float them to another. Each one carries its own weft. That patient placement is what gives a Banarasi its lasting beauty: the textile is built, not laid out and decorated.
Styling Note
Drape in a Nivi style for vertical fall, or pull the pallu across the front in a Gujarati drape to let the border read at the body. Pair with kundan, polki or antique-gold — small jhumkas with a slim choker, or a chand-bali. A tonal peach or contrasting old-gold raw-silk blouse both finish the drape.

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.
