Jamdani Charm Pure Cotton Tant Saree Mustard Yellow

What colours does this saree bring together?

The body is a warm olive-mustard, with a vivid orange border edged in green motifs. It is an earthy, sunny palette, and the green edging keeps the orange from overpowering the body.

What does the pallu look like?

The pallu carries brown stripe bands, which tone down the orange and tie into the olive in the body. Small dark buti, woven in by hand with the Jamdani extra-weft method, are scattered across the body.

Do I need to wear anything under it?

Yes. The body is sheer, so wear a petticoat in mustard, olive or a close shade. A matching petticoat keeps the colour of the saree true and the drape smooth.

Does a blouse come with it?

No, there is no blouse piece; the 5.4 to 5.5 metres is saree only. Orange, deep green or brown blouses all pick up colours from the border and pallu, so you have several easy choices.

How wide is the saree?

It measures 47 to 48 inches in height, from border to border, and 5.4 to 5.5 metres in length. If you are tall, compare this with a saree you already wear so the border falls where you like it.

How do I care for it?

Hand wash it gently with a mild detergent, separately from other clothes, and dry it in the shade. Since the body is sheer, handle it gently and avoid wringing, which can pull the weave.
