Bansbara Tussar Silk Handloom Saree Amulet Green

What does the stitching look like on this colour?

Rows of white kantha dashes run across the whole saree, including the pallu, so the pattern stays continuous from end to end. On the muted moss base they look crisp but not loud, a bit like hand-drawn lines on cloth.

What blouse would you pair with it?

Moss green is earthy, so warm colours suit it: mustard, rust or a mellow gold. White picks up the stitching for a clean look, and a black blouse makes it modern. Oxidised or antique jewellery fits the handcrafted feel.

Does the saree come with a blouse piece?

Yes. The blouse fabric is attached, and the full length is 6.3 to 6.4 metres including it. Have your tailor cut it free before the first drape and stitch it in your preferred style.

How should I drape it for the office?

A neat nivi drape with pinned pleats on the shoulder keeps it tidy for work. Since the white kantha rows run across the whole saree, including the pallu, the pattern stays continuous however you pleat it, and the tasselled ends add a soft finish.

How should I care for it?

Dry cleaning is the preferred route. If you hand wash, do it gently with a mild detergent, separately from other clothes, and dry it in the shade, away from harsh sun that can dull green shades. Iron on low heat.
