Syaahi Mangalagiri Silk Glowy Multi Color Dupatta

What birds are painted on it?

Peacocks, arranged in a column down the length, among branches dotted with tiny yellow and red flowers. The small flowers keep the background delicate, so the peacocks stand out as the main subject.

What's the border like?

Wide rust-orange borders run along both sides, warm against the deep green ground. Green and rust together give the dupatta an earthy palette that suits office days and dresses up easily for festive wear.

Can I wear it with a green kurta?

Yes. A solid green kurta in a similar or lighter shade makes a tonal set where the peacocks and border carry the colour. A rust or mustard kurta matches the border, while cream or beige keeps the look light.

Are the peacocks all identical?

Not exactly. They're painted by hand, so small irregularities in line and colour are natural, and no two dupattas come out exactly alike. Colours can also look slightly different on your screen. That variation is part of what makes each piece individual.

Which drape shows the peacocks best?

Let it fall straight from one shoulder so the column of peacocks runs down your front. It's 2 to 2.25 metres long and 35 to 36 inches wide, so it sits neatly in this style or folded around the neck.

How should I look after it?

Hand wash it gently with a mild detergent, on its own, and dry it in the shade. Keep it folded in a dry, airy cupboard rather than a damp corner.
