Mridini Silkmark Tussar Silk Embroidery Saree Teal Blue

What is teal blue like in person?

Teal sits between blue and green. This one is a mid teal blue with a soft sheen on a plain body, set off by royal blue lattice embroidery on the border and pallu. It reads festive and rich without being loud.

Which blouse colours suit this saree?

Mustard, coral, magenta and rust all make lovely contrasts with teal, and a royal blue blouse picks up the embroidery. Gold brocade gives it a traditional festive finish. If you want it simpler, the matching blouse piece is ready to stitch. Antique gold or kundan jewellery suits it well.

Is the blouse in the photos included?

No, the blouse the model wears is for styling only. What you get is a matching blouse piece of 80 cm along with the saree, which runs about 5.5 to 5.6 metres. That way the blouse is stitched to your own measurements and neckline.

Is the silk pure?

Yes. This is Silkmark tussar, which means the silk has been certified authentic for purity under the Silkmark label. You get tussar's rich natural texture and soft sheen, with a durable weave that is made to last through many wears.

How does it drape?

It has a graceful drape and a rich texture, with the soft sheen tussar silk is known for. The body is plain teal, so the eye goes to the wide royal blue embroidered border and the heavily worked pallu, which shows best pinned neatly or left open over the shoulder.

When would I wear this saree?

Festivals are where it leads, and the royal blue embroidery keeps it dressy. It's also right for an office party, an evening dinner or a kitty brunch, and with a quiet blouse you can wear it to work.
