Nothing is crowded. On a saree this restrained the spacing is the whole design decision, and it has been made well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the fabric\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003ePure handloom silk, woven in Bhagalpur. It is smoother and finer than the tussar pieces — a soft, even hand with a low sheen that shifts between dove and pewter as the light moves. It drapes close and falls without stiffness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat it's for\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eGrey with gold is the most versatile pairing there is. This carries a formal working day, a daytime function and an evening equally well, and it takes gold, pearl or oxidised silver without arguing with any of them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDetails\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFabric: Pure handloom silk\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColour: Silver grey with gold\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWork: Gold embroidered fern butis\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBody: Scattered embroidered butis, widely spaced\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBorder: Broad gold zari, both sides\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePallu: Wide gold zari bands with a twisted fringe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSaree length: 5.5 m · Width: 1.10 m\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlouse piece: 0.80 m, matching, 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\"\u003eEvery metre of this saree passed through a pit loom worked by hand and foot. No motor is involved anywhere in the process — the weaver sets the pace, and the cloth carries that pace in it. Bhagalpur has been weaving silk this way for generations, and what comes off its looms does not resemble what comes off the looms at Varanasi or Chanderi. The yarn is different, the water is different, and so are the hands.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOn colour and variation\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThese sarees are dyed in small lots and woven one at a time, so no two are alike — and no single piece is quite uniform from end to end. You may find the shade deepening a little along the length, a slub where the yarn ran thick, or an edge that wanders by a thread. None of that is damage. Screens also render colour differently, so expect some drift from what you see here.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54087293436088,"sku":null,"price":4300.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/1701\/8040\/files\/20-6.jpg?v=1789223713","url":"https:\/\/soumyata.com\/products\/silver-grey-embroidered-silk-saree-gold-zari-border","provider":"Soumyata.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
