Blue Ajrakh Modal Silk Saree with Red Heart-Leaf Buttas – Hand-Block Printed in Kutch

A blue modal silk saree, hand-block printed in Ajrakh in Kutch, Gujarat. Red heart-leaf buttas run across the blue body, framed by a floral scroll border with black rope edges. The pallu layers rows of red floral cluster buttas with a wide band of red and black heart jaal. The running blouse is blue with an off-white bird-and-leaf print and a black edge.

It is authentic modal silk. It's light and flowy, and comfortable enough to wear all day.

The Print

Each heart-leaf, flower and scroll was printed by hand with carved wooden blocks in Kutch. Look closely and each butta sits a little differently from the next. That is the hand at work, and no two pieces come out the same. We source it directly from the artisans who print it.

The Fabric

Modal silk has a soft sheen and a fluid drape. It's lighter than a heavy silk and breathes better, so it stays comfortable from the first class of the morning to the last meeting of the day.

The Running Blouse

The 6 metres include a running blouse in blue with an off-white bird-and-leaf print, ready to cut and take to your tailor.

How to Style It

Blue and red is a steady, confident pairing that reads well in a classroom, a boardroom or on a stage. Keep it to one statement piece of jewellery. It's made for teachers, doctors and working women who want a saree that looks considered all day, and it makes a thoughtful gift for a favourite teacher.

Care

Hand wash gently at home in cold water with a mild detergent, or dry clean. Don't wring or twist. Dry in the shade.
