The Weave

This is a handloom cotton saree. Woven by hand, on a loom, by an artisan — not on a power loom.

Each leaf along the border is woven in on its own. Follow the line from one end to the other and you will see the shapes shift slightly — a little fuller here, a little narrower there. That is the weaver's hand, and no machine repeats it.

How to Style It

Rama green sits between green and blue — deep enough to feel rich, cool enough to stay calm. Against it, the gold tissue pallu glows rather than glitters. It is lovely for Navratri, Deepavali and family functions, and cotton keeps it comfortable from morning pooja to evening visits.

For contrast, a pink or magenta blouse brings out the green; green and pink is one of our favourite pairings. A mustard blouse picks up the warmth of the gold. For a quieter look, off-white echoes the woven buttas. Gold-toned or temple jewellery suits it well.

Care

Hand 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.

Store 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.

Questions

What is the fabric?
Handloom cotton, with a gold tissue border and a gold tissue pallu.

Is the gold shimmer zari?
No. The shimmer on the border and pallu is tissue, not zari.

What comes with the saree?
One rama green handloom cotton saree, 6.2 metres long and 1.2 metres wide, with a rama green running blouse attached. The blouse portion is part of the 6.2 metres.

Is the blouse stitched?
No. The running blouse is unstitched and attached to the saree. Your tailor cuts it off and stitches it to your measurements.

Is it really handloom?
Yes. It is woven by hand on a loom, not on a power loom.

What colour is rama green?
A deep green with a hint of blue, close to teal. The tassels are dyed to match the body.

How is this different from your other handloom cotton sarees in this weave?
The magenta saree carries the same leaf border in a festive pink. The mustard saree carries a temple border instead. This one is the cool-toned choice of the three.

Is it suitable for festivals?
Yes. The rama green and gold tissue make it festive, and the cotton keeps it comfortable — a good choice for Navratri, Deepavali and family functions.

Why do some motifs look slightly different?
Because they are woven by hand. Small variations in texture and motif shape are natural to handloom and are not defects.

How do I care for the tissue?
Do 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.
