Mridula Kota Silk Saree Red

What motif runs across the Mridula saree?

Small gold chevron buti are set in rows across the vivid red body. They are small and evenly spaced, so the saree reads as rich red with a fine gold sparkle rather than a busy pattern.

Does the pallu have a separate design?

No, the pallu continues the same chevron buti as the body and is finished with tassels, while a narrow gold zari band runs along the edges. This makes it easy to drape in any style, since there is no heavy pallu to position.

What jewellery goes with a red and gold saree?

Gold is the natural match: jhumkas, a layered chain or temple jewellery all suit it. Keep to one statement piece, since the buti already add sparkle across the whole body.

Is the red likely to run?

Strong hand-dyed colours like red need a little care. Dry cleaning is preferred. If you wash at home, use a gentle hand wash with mild detergent, wash the saree alone and dry it in the shade.

How long is it, and is a blouse piece included?

Yes, a blouse piece is attached, and the saree measures 6.3 to 6.4 metres including it. A red blouse keeps the look classic, while a gold or green blouse gives a lively contrast.
