Kalpataru Stripes Kalamkari Silk Saree - Grey

A muted saree with vertical pinstripes on a steel grey body offset by a contrasting pallu in vivid yellow. The pallu features hand-painted flowers, leaves and embellishments in earthy shades of brick and green. Comes attached with hand-painted Kalamkari blouse fabric in yellow. Material: Mulberry silk woven in Kanchipuram Colour: Grey and Mustard Saree Length: 5.50m Blouse: 85cm  Each Kanchipuram silk saree in our Kalpataru range is hand-painted by master artists in Kalahasti who have carried forward this tradition over generations. The sarees are painted using natural pigments derived from tree bark, fruit peels and flowers, washed in running river water and bleached by the sun. Every saree is moulded by the colours, water and sunlight of the region, and each line, stroke and variation is a testament to the artist’s skill and labour.  Note: Since the traditional Kalamkari process involves multiple rounds of preparation and washing, the attached blouse piece on this saree is slightly smaller than our standard allowance due to shrinkage. If you require more fabric or would like to tailor a custom blouse, please reach out to our team. Care Instructions: Dry clea
