Serene Pure Silk Kota Doria Handdyed Mustard Saree

What does it look like?

It has a plain body in a bright chartreuse-mustard shade, a lively yellow-green, with a narrow gold border along the edges. The pallu follows the body, so it is a cheerful, minimal look that pairs easily with a contrast blouse.

Who made it?

It is handcrafted at the IndieHaat unit in Kota, Rajasthan, under master artisan Haq Nawaz, and hand-dyed. Kota is the home of Kota doria, and hand dyeing means the exact shade varies a little between pieces.

What blouse would suit it?

A gold blouse would tie in with the border. Deep purple, maroon or navy make strong contrasts against a bright base. Gold jewellery suits it, and a simple pair of jhumkas is enough for a festive day or a temple visit.

Is Kota good for summer?

Yes. Kota silk is a lightweight, sheer fabric woven with the open checked khat pattern, and it is prized for its airy texture and delicate drape, especially in warm climates. That makes it an easy choice for summer days and travel.

How long is the saree?

It measures 6.3 to 6.4 metres, including the attached blouse piece. Cut the blouse piece off along the end before tailoring, then drape the rest in your usual style; the plain body and narrow gold border make pleating simple.
