Handcrafted Kota Silk Yellow & Green Saree

How do the yellow and green work together?

The body is a soft pale gold-yellow with a wide gold zari border, and the pallu is a wide panel of deep green with fine zari stripes, finished with tassels. Set side by side, the two colours look traditional and rich in daylight.

Is the yellow pale or bright?

It is a soft, buttery yellow, gentler than a bright lemon. That makes the bottle green pallu look deeper by contrast, while the body stays easy to wear for daytime. Screens vary, so expect a warm pastel.

How does the pallu finish?

The pallu is a wide deep green panel with fine zari stripes, framed by the wide gold zari border that runs through the saree, and it ends in tassels. The green against the pale gold body gives it a clean colour-block look when it falls from the shoulder.

What blouse goes with it?

A green blouse matching the pallu gives a traditional look for pujas. Gold tissue adds richness, and a red or maroon blouse makes it more festive. Temple jewellery suits the yellow and green combination well.

Which petticoat colour goes under the yellow body?

Kota is sheer, so pick a yellow or skin-tone petticoat for the body. A green one would show through the yellow pleats, and a white one can look patchy under the soft buttery shade.

How do I care for it?

Dry cleaning is preferred, or a gentle hand wash with a mild detergent. Wash it separately in cool water, don't wring it, and dry it in the shade so the pale gold body and the green pallu both stay fresh.
