black Banarasi Mashru silk saree with a prominent gold or copper zari border and intricate woven patterns, featuring a striking magenta (pink) along the border.
Fabric Composition: Mashru is a unique, traditional Indian textile that blends silk and cotton. It is woven with cotton yarns on the inside (warp) for breathability and comfort, and lustrous silk yarns on the outside (weft) to provide a rich, glossy finish and elegant appearance.
Design and Weave: The saree features elaborate Banarasi weaving techniques, known for their rich history and intricate designs. The fabric is adorned with all-over motifs (buta or butti) and detailed border and pallu (the decorative end piece draped over the shoulder) work, typically using gold or copper zari threads.
