Swarnachari Silk Saree | Pure Silk Handloom Bengal Weave
type: Product
description: A pure silk Swarnachari saree, handwoven on a traditional pit loom in West Bengal, featuring golden zari (metallic thread) narrative panels inspired by Indian mythology and courtly art.

Occasions & Global Relevance This saree is at home at a Bengali wedding in Kolkata, a Durga Puja celebration in Bengaluru, or a Diwali gathering in London or Melbourne. It suits Navratri evenings, Karva Chauth pujas, Onam celebrations in Chennai, and formal cultural galas in New York or Toronto equally well.
