Nakshi Handloom Pure Khadi Cotton Saree Purple

What is the design on this Nakshi saree?

Small white hearts scattered over a muted orchid body, with matching white tassels at the ends. The purple is soft rather than bright, so the hearts feel gentle and the saree suits days when you want colour without it shouting.

What do the tassels add?

White twisted tassels finish the ends and echo the hearts. They give the pallu a light, crafted finish and a little swing as you move. Keep them untangled by smoothing them out while the saree dries.

Is it comfortable in warm weather?

Yes. Handspun, handwoven khadi is soft and breathable, so it stays comfortable on warm days. The embroidery is light and the pallu carries no heavy work, so the saree is easy to wear from morning to evening.

Does it include blouse fabric?

It does, as a running blouse within the 6.4–6.5 metre length. Cut it from the end and stitch it to your measurements. In the same khadi, it gives a matched, easy look for work or kitty lunches.

How should I wash it?

Always wash it separately, by hand, in cool water with a mild detergent. Press the water out rather than wringing, and dry it in the shade, out of direct light. Store it folded in a cotton cloth once it is fully dry.

How do I iron it without flattening the hearts?

Turn it over and iron on the reverse with a warm iron, ideally while slightly damp. Place a towel under the embroidered areas so the hearts keep their shape. Keep the iron away from the tassels.
