Zariya Pure Handloom Cotton Saree Purple

What does the anchal look like?

The body is a plain plum purple, and the zari anchal is wide, with alternating gold and purple stripes that give it a bold, graphic look. It finishes with chunky purple tassels. The cotton has a matte finish, so the gold stripes stand out clearly against it.

Is the zari woven in?

Yes. The zari anchal is woven into the design on the handloom, so the gold stripes are part of the fabric itself. The saree is sourced directly from Roy Das, a handloom weaver from West Bengal, and slight variations in weave reflect the handmade work.

What blouse goes with purple and gold?

It comes with a running blouse. A plum purple blouse keeps the look tonal, a gold or mustard blouse picks up the zari stripes, and a green or teal blouse gives a striking contrast that suits a festive day.

Is it comfortable for daily wear?

Yes. The soft, breathable cotton feels light and allows easy movement, which suits long hours, daily wear and the office. The broad gold stripes add enough interest that it needs little jewellery, which makes it easy for busy mornings.

How should I care for it?

Hand wash it gently in a mild detergent, on its own, and dry it in the shade. Avoid wringing, especially at the zari anchal, and let it dry fully before you fold it away. A light press keeps the cotton looking crisp.
