Pure Kora Silk Banarasi Saree | Sage Green Kadhwa Floral Buta | Sona Rupa Zari & Tilfi Meenakari Rose Border | KATAN BANARAS

Draped in the legacy of Banaras, this exquisite Pure Kora Silk Kadhwa Buta Saree is woven entirely on traditional handlooms by master weavers of Varanasi. Every delicate floral buta, every bloom of the meenakari border — hand-interlaced with sona rupa (gold-silver) zari and tilfi coloured silk threads, thread by thread, on a fresh sage green ground.

Colour & Design

• Colour: Sage Green — fresh, serene, and effortlessly elegant with a sheer, crisp kora texture

Why Pure Kora Silk?

Kora silk is woven from raw, untwisted silk threads, giving it a distinctive crisp, organza-like texture with a natural sheen. Lighter than Katan silk, it drapes with an airy elegance that makes it especially prized for summer weddings and festive occasions.

What is Kadhwa Weaving?

Kadhwa is the most intricate and time-consuming technique in Banarasi weaving — each motif is individually woven by hand without a flying shuttle, requiring master weavers to work thread by thread. A single Kadhwa saree can take weeks to complete, making it a true heirloom piece.

Occasions

Perfect for weddings, receptions, festive celebrations, mehendi ceremonies, and any occasion that calls for refined Indian luxury.
