Featuring a sophisticated 3-inch border embellished with narrow mayil kannu bands enclosed in a thilagam motif band, this sari exudes elegance. The eye-catching endpiece is decorated with intricate peacock motifs and beautifully woven brocade panels. The sari is paired with a matching blouse for a complete look.
Dimensions:
- Length - 5.5 meters
- Width - 1.27 meters

- Garment care: Take care of your garment, for these are heirloom pieces that patrons can pass across generations. We recommend gently hand-washing these sarees in cool water with mild detergent. Shade dry these sarees & avoid drying them under direct sunlight.
Hand-crafted products have true personality; they express character, skill and culture. Who designed the product? Was there an inspiration behind the design? How do you know that the garment was made with love? How would you know if those who made them were healthy, motivated, and happy artisans? The only way is to observe and appreciate the process. We allow the process to be seen there by empowering the patron to see the impact they yield on the process.
