A handwoven Katan silk Banarasi saree in pink, drawn over with scrolling vines and florals in a continuous Aada Jangla layout. The motifs, anchal and border are all woven in zari — the Aada vine runs diagonally across the body and the Banarasi border frames every edge. Handwoven in Varanasi on a traditional pit loom.
An Aada Jangla sets the vine on the diagonal — a small geometric trick that asks the weaver to carry the composition without ever resetting the rhythm. Done in Kadhua, each leaf and bloom is built into the weave with its own weft. That sustained placement across the full length of the warp is what gives a Jangla its quiet, woven authority.
Styling Note
Drapes beautifully in a Nivi style. Pair with antique-gold or polki jewellery and a deep red or gold raw-silk blouse to lift the pink ground.

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.

Every Stuti Weaves saree is woven to a standard width of 44–46 inches.
