Iraaya Pure Handloom Jayashree Silk Linen Saree Rose Pink

How does the zari sit on the rose pink?

Softly. The body is a plain dusty rose pink, and the pallu carries a wide band of rose-gold, copper-toned zari, finished with tassels. Because the metallic tone sits close to the pink, the effect is gentle and tonal, so the saree reads refined rather than high-contrast and suits a brunch or a day at the office.

Which blouse colour suits it?

A maroon, wine or deep green blouse gives a clear contrast against rose pink; ivory or a gold blouse keeps the look soft and tonal. Pearls and rose-gold jewellery suit the shade and sit well with the pink-copper zari on the pallu.

Is the blouse running or contrast?

It is a running blouse, woven as part of the saree in the same silk-linen. Ask your tailor to cut it off before draping. A plain blouse keeps the look clean and lets the zari pallu stand out, while a contrast colour of your choice can make it more festive.

How long is the saree?

The saree measures about 6.4 to 6.5 metres, a comfortable length for a standard nivi drape with full pleats at the front and a generous pallu over the shoulder. The running blouse piece is supplied with it.

Is it really handwoven?

Yes. It is pure handloom, woven on traditional looms in Bengal without electricity. Look closely and you will see small irregularities in texture and slub, especially when light falls across the body. Those variations are the mark of a hand loom, not defects.

Can I wash it at home?

Yes. A gentle hand wash with mild detergent is fine. Wash it on its own, in cool water, and do not wring it, especially around the zari pallu. Dry it in the shade, away from direct sun, and press it lightly once it is nearly dry to keep the silk-linen smooth.
