Trikon Katha Pure Kota Silk Saree Wine Brown

Where does this saree fit in?

It suits office days, where the deep, muted shade and woven triangles look polished without trying too hard. It also carries well into dinners and evening plans, kitty brunches, pujas and festive gatherings. Because it is Kota, it is light enough for summer and easy to pack for travel.

Is this a warm shade, and what is on the pallu?

Yes, it is a deep, warm brown with an aubergine undertone, scattered with small gold triangles and thin gold lines. The pallu end is a plain pale blush pink that fades softly into the brown, which lifts the whole saree. Gold, antique or temple-style jewellery sits naturally with these tones.

Which blouse colours go with it?

The running blouse in the same fabric gives a quiet, tonal look. For contrast, mustard, old rose, teal or a soft gold brocade sit beautifully against wine brown. A cream blouse lightens the whole look for daytime and works well at the office.

How is the pattern made?

The triangles and fine gold lines are jacquard woven, so the pattern sits in the Kota silk itself rather than being added on afterwards, and the saree is finished with hand dyeing. Kota silk is a light, sheer blend of cotton and silk yarns, woven with the signature khat checks.

How do I wash it safely?

Dry cleaning is preferred. For home washing, use cold water with a mild detergent, wash it separately and away from light-coloured clothes, and dry it in the shade rather than in direct sun. Being hand-dyed, it is best handled gently.
