Butter Yellow Hand-Block Printed Cotton Saree with Bud Buttas and Vine Border

A butter yellow saree in 100% cotton, hand-block printed by artisans in India. Small off-white buttas, each ringed with a halo of dots, sit in neat rows across the body, edged by a border of scrolling vines. The pallu carries rows of leaf sprigs between vine bands, opening into a larger floral bouquet.

Every motif is pressed by hand with a carved wooden block, so you'll see small variations from print to print — a slight shift in tone, a softened edge. That's the hand at work, not a flaw.

The blouse fabric comes attached — plain butter yellow with the vine border along one edge. Cut it from the saree and have it tailored to your fit.

A quiet, sunny colour for daytime — office days, haldi, a temple visit, a summer lunch. Gold-toned or pearl jewellery lifts it gently.
