Samanvaya Embroidery Handloom Pure Cotton Saree Mint Green

What shade is this mint green saree?

It is a very pale mint, with fine rows of dashed running-stitch embroidery across the body and red and blue lines on the pallu. Red, blue and white tassels finish the hem, so it looks fresh and light.

Which blouse would suit it?

No blouse is included. A red or navy blouse picks up the pallu lines and gives it definition; a white or pale mint blouse keeps it soft and airy for summer.

Is it handwoven?

Yes, it is pure handloom cotton, woven on a traditional loom before the embroidery is stitched. Small irregularities in the weave and stitching are part of its handmade character. No two pieces are identical.

Is it good for hot weather?

Yes. Pure cotton is soft, breathable and gentle on the skin, and this light handloom saree suits summer days, office wear and travel. The fine stitch stripes add detail without any weight or heavy border.

How do I keep it looking new?

Hand wash gently with a mild detergent, separately from other clothes, and dry in the shade. Don't scrub the stitch embroidery, and lift the saree out of the water rather than wringing it. Keep the pale mint away from harsh sun and store it folded in a cotton cloth.
