Hawa Hawai Pure Mul Cotton Handloom Saree White

What is the gold motif on it?

A few large gold leaf motifs are placed on the cream-white body, with a heavier worked pallu, a thin gold line along the edge and white tassels at the end. The motifs are hand printed on the handloom mul, so small irregularities are part of the handmade character.

Will the gold print last through washes?

Hand-printed detail lasts best with gentle care: hand wash it separately in cold water with a mild detergent, do not scrub the printed area, dry it in the shade, and iron it on the reverse side.

Is the off-white suitable for pujas?

Yes, a white-and-gold saree is a natural fit for pujas and temple visits, and the leaf motif keeps it from looking too plain. Its light mul also makes it good for summer travel, the office and everyday wear.

How long is it?

The saree is 5.4 to 5.5 metres long and comes without a blouse piece, so you can choose a blouse of your own. Gold, red or a soft pastel all work with off-white.

How does it feel?

Soft, airy and lightweight. Pure mul cotton is woven from fine yarns and breathes very well, so it stays comfortable in warm weather and falls in a smooth drape. It is an easy choice for everyday wear, the office and summer travel.
