Woven by hand, on a loom, by an artisan — not on a power loom.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlong the border, stepped temple peaks alternate with small flowering stems, and a scatter of buttas is woven into the body. Each motif is placed by the weaver, one pass of the shuttle at a time. Look closely and you will find small differences from one to the next. That is the mark of the hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow to Style It\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePeacock blue is a clear, bright blue with a touch of green — lively without being loud. Beside the gold tissue pallu it feels festive and fresh at once. It carries well through Navratri, Deepavali and family functions, and cotton keeps it comfortable all day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor contrast, a mustard or magenta blouse makes the blue sing. A soft pink blouse gives a gentler look. Off-white echoes the woven buttas and keeps it classic. Gold-toned or temple jewellery suits it well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCare\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHand wash in cold water with a mild detergent. Wash it on its own the first few times, and always keep darks and lights apart. No bleach or harsh chemicals. Do not wring or twist, especially the tissue. Line dry in the shade — cotton fades faster in direct sun. Iron on a warm setting, and press the tissue border and pallu on the reverse side.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStore it folded in a dry place, wrapped in white cotton cloth, and refold it along new lines now and then so the tissue does not crease sharply in one place.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eQuestions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the fabric?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHandloom cotton, with a gold tissue border and a gold tissue pallu.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the gold shimmer zari?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo. The shimmer on the border and pallu is tissue, not zari.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat comes with the saree?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOne peacock blue handloom cotton saree, 6.2 metres long and 1.2 metres wide, with a peacock blue running blouse attached. The blouse portion is part of the 6.2 metres.\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 it off and stitches it to your measurements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs it really handloom?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. It is woven by hand on a loom, not on a power loom.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat colour are the tassels?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRoyal blue — a brighter blue than the body, so they stand out at the end of the pallu.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow is this different from your other handloom cotton sarees in this weave?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe mustard, soft indigo and maroon sarees share this temple border in other colours. The magenta and rama green sarees carry a leaf border instead. Peacock blue is the brightest blue in the set — livelier than the soft indigo.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs it suitable for festivals?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. The peacock blue and gold tissue make it festive, and the cotton keeps it comfortable — a good choice for Navratri, Deepavali and family functions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy do some motifs look slightly different?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBecause they are woven by hand. Small variations in texture and motif shape are natural to handloom and are not defects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I care for the tissue?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDo not wring or twist it. Iron on a warm setting, pressing the tissue on the reverse side, and store the saree folded in soft cotton cloth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I see the saree on a video call?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes.
