Story
Jasmine burnt the midnight oil, its labour producing a beautiful aroma that greeted her even before she could open her door in the morning. Memories that were etched on her mind since childhood effortlessly expressed themselves in her designs.
A wayward moth alighted on her windowsill. She was reminded of how mother would chase them away, saying that they brought ‘bad luck’. But that only made the moths more endearing to her. She drew one in her sketchbook and skillfully concealed it as a flower.
Voice your boldest ideas in this purple and yellow Zareen Aftab katan Banarasi silk saree. And remember to catch the woven moths amidst the gossamery zari flowers.
Description
Rooted in the textile traditions of the ancient city of Varanasi, Banarasi sarees are among the finest sarees in India. They are known for their rich gold and silver brocade or zari, fine silk and opulent embroidery. The saris are made of finely woven silk and decorated with intricate designs.
This Suta saree is made of handloom silk, in the exquisite kadhwa weave. The zari used in this saree is quality tested. It takes our master weavers roughly two weeks to create a single saree. What makes these sarees extra luxurious is that 1.5 times more silk is used in the warp. They feature Suta’s proprietary moth-inspired floral motif, which makes them stand apart from traditional Banarasi weaves that feature predominantly floral and foliate patterns.
