Maroon Motif Pure Silk Handloom Banarasi Dupatta

A handwoven Banarasi pure Katan silk dupatta in maroon, the field drawn with thread-by-thread Kadhua motifs and bordered by a steady run of zari along every edge. The motifs, anchal and border are all woven in zari, the pattern carried in even placement across the body of the dupatta. Handwoven in Varanasi on a traditional pit loom. The richness of a Kadhua dupatta sits in what you can't see: hours of loom time for each motif, no shortcuts and no after-work. That weight of patience is exactly what makes Banarasi a textile that lasts — it is built into the cloth, not laid on top of it. Styling Note Drape over a tonal silk kurta or a heavier lehenga, with the dupatta carried in a single pinned pleat or pulled across the front to let the border show. Pair with antique-gold or polki jewellery — kundan jhumkas, a chand-bali, or a slim haar. Maroon reads especially well against gold and ivory.
