Embroidered Bansbara Tussar Silk Handloom Saree Green

What are the motifs on this saree?

The body is covered in dark, outlined medallions that read as stylised faces, scattered evenly across the fabric. Set on a soft light-green base, they give the saree a graphic, almost artistic feel. There is no separate border or pallu design, so the motifs carry the whole look.

What does the texture feel like?

It has a visible slub texture, with small irregular thickenings in the yarn that you can see and feel. That is typical of a handloom weave and gives the surface a natural, matte character rather than a glossy one, and the saree looks light when draped.

How would you style the blouse?

A black blouse is the strongest choice, picking up the dark outlines of the motifs and making the light-green base look fresher. For something softer, try grey or a deeper green. Keep jewellery simple, oxidised silver or wooden pieces, so the motifs stay the focus.

Is a blouse piece included?

Yes. The blouse fabric is attached to the saree, and the total length, including the blouse, is 6.3 to 6.4 metres. Your tailor cuts it off and stitches it to your fit, so you can choose any neckline or sleeve you like.

How do I wash it?

Dry cleaning is preferred. A gentle hand wash with a mild detergent also works; wash it on its own because it is hand dyed, and dry it in the shade so the light base keeps its colour. Avoid wringing hard, which can distort the slub weave and the embroidery.
