Deep maroon silk, spaced with zari floral buttas.
Each butta is a small, upright bouquet, repeated at an easy rhythm across the body. The wide border is finely patterned in zari and edged in a darker tone, which gives the maroon its depth.
Banarasi is a silk weaving tradition rooted in Varanasi, where the pattern is built into the cloth thread by thread on the loom.
