A copper zari border runs the length of both sides.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the weave\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eDupion silk is woven from double cocoons — two silkworms spinning together — which produces an irregular yarn with slubs running through it. It gives a crisp hand and a sharp, changeable lustre: it reflects rather than glows, and the slubs catch light in lines across the surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe pallu is woven in bands rather than printed, each stripe a different dyed yarn carried across the width. Lemon yellow against plum is an unusual choice and a confident one — the sand and copper bands between them are what keep it from shouting. A fine dark line finishes the selvedge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat it's for\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003ePlum carries an evening without going near bridal, and the pallu does enough that the saree needs no jewellery to speak of. It sits well under artificial light, which is when the copper zari does most of its work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDetails\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFabric: Dupion silk\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColour: Plum with lemon, sand and copper\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBorder: Copper zari, both sides, with a fine dark selvedge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePallu: Wide woven bands in lemon, sand, copper and plum, with a twisted fringe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBody: Plain plum\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSaree length: 5.5 m · Width: 1.10 m\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlouse piece: 0.80 m, unstitched\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePackage contains: 1 saree with blouse piece\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWash care: Dry clean only\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOn handloom\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eHandloom cloth is woven entirely by hand, without electric power — a rhythm of foot and shuttle that takes years to learn and cannot be hurried. Every weaving cluster has its own way of rendering a weave, particular to its region, its yarn and its craft, which is why two handloom sarees from different districts never quite look alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOn colour and variation\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eEach piece is woven individually and dyed in small batches, so slight unevenness in the slub, in the selvedge and in the depth of colour is inherent to the process rather than a defect.
