Bright Lavender Peacock Motif Pure Silk Handloom Banarasi Saree

A lavender-purple Banarsi silk saree scattered with small bird buti motifs, woven in gold and silver zari across the body. The two-tone birds sit in an even grid, catching the light against the deep plum ground. The drape is finished with a fine floral zari border, and the anchal carries a matching band of flowering motifs. Handwoven in Varanasi on a traditional pit loom. Styling Note A Nivi drape carries this composition best — the pallu placed long over the shoulder so the border reads in full down the front. Pair with antique gold or kundan jewellery to echo the zari, and a matching salmon raw silk or contrast antique-gold tissue blouse to keep the focus on the weave.

After wearing, allow the saree to settle gently. Dry clean only, so the weave, colour, and zari remain protected. When storing, wrap it in a soft muslin cloth and keep it in a dry place. Zari is delicate and responds to changes in weather; the muslin helps the textile breathe while keeping the weave stable. Avoid spraying perfume directly onto the saree, as fragrance and alcohol can affect the fabric and zari. Every few months, open it out and let it air naturally for a while — a small ritual that allows the weave to breathe and helps the saree stay beautiful for years.
