{"product_id":"peacock-blue-alfi-pure-silk-handloom-banarasi-saree","title":"Peacock Blue Alfi Pure Silk Handloom Banarasi Saree","description":"\u003cp\u003eA handwoven pure Katan silk Banarasi saree in peacock blue, with Alfi motifs — small floral buttis outlined in resham and zari — drawn over the body thread by thread. The motifs, anchal and border are all woven in zari, with the wide Banarasi border framing the drape on every edge and an anchor motif on the anchal in keeping with the body. Handwoven in Varanasi on a traditional pit loom.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlfi is among the most patient of the Kadhua techniques — each butti is twice-outlined, once in resham and once in zari, before the next is set on the loom. The pattern reads close to embroidery, but every stitch is part of the weave itself, which is what gives the textile its weight and its quiet glow.\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\u003eA Nivi drape lets the dense Alfi field unfold cleanly across the body. Style with kundan or polki in antique gold, or temple jewellery for a more traditional pairing.
