Whispering Petals Blockprint Chanderi Silk Saree Deep Purple

What is the lotus pattern like?

Cream lotus flowers and leafy vines form a dense jaal, a joined-up network that covers the body. Against the deep ground, the cream motifs stand out clearly, giving the saree a rich, decorative look that still feels light to wear. Being hand block printed, the lotus repeats may vary slightly in depth.

How is the pallu designed?

The pallu shifts to green stripes framed by paisley bands. It is more open than the dense body, which gives the shoulder a breather and shows off the paisley. A narrow green leaf border with a thin yellow line ties the green of the pallu back to the hem.

Is there a blouse piece, and how long is the saree?

Yes, there is an attached blouse piece, and the 6.3 to 6.4 metre length includes it. Separate the blouse portion before you get it tailored. A cream blouse echoes the lotus, while green picks up the pallu stripes.

Is it comfortable for long evenings?

Yes. It is light handloom Chanderi silk-cotton, so it does not weigh you down through a dinner or a long festive evening. Chanderi is known for being lightweight and breathable, which helps it stay comfortable over several hours.

Does it have a sheen?

Yes, a soft one. The silk in the Chanderi weave gives it a gentle glow that picks up light, especially on the cream motifs, without looking shiny or synthetic. That glow makes the saree look a little dressier in warm evening light.

What care does it need?

Dry clean only. Keep it in a separate bag in a dry place, change its folds from time to time and expose it to dry air now and then. If it ever needs drying, do it in the shade so the printed colours stay rich.
