A Katan silk Banarasi saree in rich rani pink, worked in Kadhua and laid out as an Aada Jangla — scrolling vines and florals carried unbroken across the body in the Aada (diagonal) repeat. The anchal continues the language of the body. The motifs, anchal and border are all woven in zari — the jaal, the anchal and the framing edges are all built in gold. Handwoven in Varanasi on a traditional pit loom.
What makes a Jangla rare is its refusal to repeat. The vine pattern carries on across the full body of the drape, every leaf finding its place without breaking the rhythm. Weaving that level of unbroken composition takes months of pit-loom work — Banarasi at its most exacting.
Styling Note
Drape Nivi-style; the Aada Jangla composition rewards a clean front pleat. Pair with kundan, polki or antique-gold; a blouse in deeper rose, wine or ivory raw silk lets the pink ground stay luminous.

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.
