Madhubani Silkmark Gicha Tussar Silk Red Saree

What scenes are painted on the pallu?

The pallu is densely painted with Madhubani-style figure scenes in green, orange, blue and black. Madhubani, or Mithila, painting often draws on mythology, nature and everyday life, and is known for bold lines and vibrant colour, so the pallu reads like a story told across the fabric.

How does the red balance the scene?

The earthy red body is left mostly plain, with small painted roundels, so the busy pallu has room to breathe. The warm red and the orange accents in the painting tie together well.

Which jewellery suits it?

Gold, Kundan or temple jewellery for festive occasions. For a lighter look, small gold jhumkas and a choker are enough, letting the painted figure scene on the pallu stay the focus.

Is a blouse included?

Yes. An unstitched blouse piece in the pallu colour comes attached to the saree, which is about 6.3 to 6.4 metres long in total. Your tailor can cut it off and make it to your measurements.

What is Ghicha Tussar?

A handwoven silk made from Gicha yarn, which is spun from broken or leftover Tussar fibres. It has a rich texture, good durability and a unique, slightly irregular appearance, which gives this hand-painted saree an earthy, handmade character.

How should I care for it?

Dry clean only. Keep it in a separate bag, change the folds regularly and air it occasionally. If it gets damp, dry it in the shade rather than in the sun.
