{"product_id":"powder-blue-kadhua-banarsi-silk-saree","title":"Powder Blue Butterfly Kadhua Banarsi Handwoven Silk Saree","description":"\u003cp\u003eA powder blue Banarsi silk saree drawn with butterfly buti, each pair of wings woven mostly in silver zari with a fine gold vein so the motifs shimmer softly over the cool blue ground. The motifs, anchal and border are all woven in zari — a silver floral border edged in rose runs the drape, with the anchal finished in the same silver zari. Handwoven in Varanasi on a traditional pit loom.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSilver zari on a pale ground is unforgiving work: there is little contrast to hide behind, so every butterfly has to be woven cleanly for the motif to hold its shape. Set in kadhua, each one is an independent inlay, and the measured, open placement is a luxury of restraint — the value is in the precision of the weave rather than in density.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\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\n\u003cp\u003eA Nivi or Bengali drape both suit the soft blue.
