Technique

• Kadhua Work: This is a traditional handloom weaving technique used in Banarasi sarees. It involves intricate, detailed hand-weaving where the motifs are woven into the fabric, not just embroidered on top. This technique ensures that the designs are durable and have a luxurious finish.
• Meenakari: This refers to the art of enameling, adding vibrant colors to the motifs, often seen in floral and paisley patterns on the saree. It enhances the beauty of the Sona Roopa designs with intricate detailing.
• Katan Border: Katan refers to a pure silk thread. The border of the saree is made from Katan silk, known for its smooth and soft texture. It adds a touch of contrast and richness to the saree.

Speciality

• Craftsmanship: The combination of Kadhua work and Meenakari makes each saree unique, with a high level of craftsmanship involved.
• Luxurious Appeal: The use of gold and silver threads, along with vibrant enamel work, gives the saree a regal and opulent look.
• Traditional Heritage: It is a representation of India's rich weaving heritage and traditional artistry, especially from the Banaras region.

Care

• Dry Clean Only: To maintain the sheen and intricate work, it is recommended to dry clean the saree.
• Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Wrap it in a muslin cloth to avoid any direct contact with moisture or sunlight which can tarnish the metal threads.
• Handling: Handle with care to prevent any damage to the delicate fabric and the intricate Kadhua and Meenakari work.

Purity

• 100% Silk: The saree should be made from 100% Tissue silk, without any synthetic or mixed fibers.
• Silk Mark: Look for the Silk Mark certification, which ensures the authenticity of the silk used.

This saree is not only a piece of clothing but a work of art, reflecting the rich cultural heritage and skilled craftsmanship of Indian weavers.
