{"product_id":"cream-grey-handloom-saree-with-running-blouse","title":"Cream \u0026 Grey Handloom Saree with Running Blouse","description":"\u003cp\u003eA handloom saree with a soft cream body and a grey pallu, the pallu edged in black and woven with off-white motifs. On the cream body the buttas are tone-on-tone — you notice them up close, in the light, rather than from across the room. The motifs are woven into the cloth, not printed on it, which is why you can see them from the reverse side too. A running blouse comes attached.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e — 6.2 metres, including the running blouse\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e — 1.2 metres\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody\u003c\/strong\u003e — soft cream, with subtle tone-on-tone woven buttas\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePallu\u003c\/strong\u003e — grey, with woven off-white motif bands and a black border, set off from the body by fine grey stripes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e — knotted tassels at the pallu end, a fine selvedge along the edge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlouse\u003c\/strong\u003e — running blouse attached, to be cut and stitched by your tailor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Weave\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is handloom. Woven by hand, on a loom, by an artisan — not on a power loom. We say it plainly, because it is the thing our customers most want to be sure of.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA hand-woven cloth carries the marks of the hand that made it. You may find a slub in the yarn, or a motif that sits a little off from the one beside it. That is the loom speaking, not a flaw in the saree.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow to Style It\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCream and grey is the quietest pairing in our range. It reads calm and clean — easy for office days, easy for a morning at the temple, easy to make your own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause the saree itself is so soft, the blouse can do the talking. A black blouse picks up the pallu border and sharpens the whole look. A maroon or deep red blouse warms it. Oxidised silver jewellery sits beautifully against the grey.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCare\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHand wash in cold to lukewarm water with a mild detergent. Wash it on its own the first few times — the grey and black can release a little dye early on, and a cream body shows it. No bleach or harsh chemicals. Do not wring or twist. Line dry in the shade, never in direct sun. Warm iron only.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStored well — folded in a dry place, wrapped in white cotton cloth, refolded along different lines now and then — a handloom saree stays with you for years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eQuestions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is included with this saree?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOne cream and grey handloom saree, 6.2 metres long and 1.2 metres wide, with a running blouse attached. The 6.2 metres includes the blouse portion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the blouse stitched?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo. The running blouse is unstitched and attached to the saree — your tailor cuts and stitches it to your measurements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this saree handloom or powerloom?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHandloom. It is woven by hand on a loom, not on a power loom.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAre the motifs woven or printed?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWoven. They are worked into the fabric on the loom, so they show on the reverse side as well. On the cream body they are tone-on-tone and subtle; on the grey pallu they stand out in off-white.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat colour is it really?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA soft cream body, a grey pallu with off-white motifs, and a black border on the pallu. Creams photograph differently on every screen, so a video call is the honest way to check before you buy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy do I see small irregularities in the weave?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBecause a person wove it. Small variations in texture and in where each motif sits are natural to handloom and are not defects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill the grey bleed into the cream?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe grey and black may release a little dye in the first few washes. Wash the saree on its own at first, in cold water, and it settles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow should I wash it?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHand wash in cold to lukewarm water with a mild detergent, no bleach. Do not wring. Line dry in the shade and use a warm iron only.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I see the saree on video before ordering?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes.
