Banswara Silk Saree Pastel Lavendar Lotus Embroidery

What kind of embroidery is on the pallu?

Small pink and magenta florals are clustered on the pallu, worked in thread and set off with tassels at the end. They are delicate in scale, so even though the pallu is the busiest part, the overall look stays soft and light, framed by a gold border.

How does the pastel shade wear?

The lavender is a cool, soft pastel that looks fresh in daylight and gentle on most skin tones. The gold border warms it up slightly and stops it looking washed out. Since hand dyeing brings small shade variations, your piece may sit a touch lighter or deeper than another.

Is it a good saree for summer?

Yes, summer and travel suit it well. It has a soft slub texture and looks light, and the embroidery is concentrated on the pallu, so the body stays plain and airy. A cotton blouse keeps the look easy for a warm afternoon outing.

Will the colours bleed?

As a hand dyed piece, it should be washed separately. Use a mild detergent, keep the wash short and gentle, and dry it in the shade. The pink florals and gold border keep their look best with dry cleaning, which is the preferred option.

How should I store it?

Fold it loosely in a cotton cloth or saree bag, with the pallu folded so the florals are not pressed under heavy pieces. Keep it away from direct sunlight, which can fade pastel shades over time, and refold it along new lines every so often.
