Neerav Pure Linen Zari Border Saree Green

What shade of green is it?

It is a soft lime green with a hint of yellow, light and fresh rather than a deep green. The gold anchal and border blend in tone-on-tone, so the overall look is gentle and summery.

How visible is the zari on this shade?

It reads as a soft sheen rather than a bold contrast. Because the lime has a yellow cast, the wide mustard-gold pallu block and the narrow gold edge sit close to it in tone, and the knotted tassels at the end add a little texture.

Is it handwoven?

Yes. It is woven on a handloom from pure Jayashree linen, with the zari border and anchal worked into the weave. Small variations in texture are part of handloom cloth.

What blouse suits lime green?

A gold blouse matches the anchal and is festive. A rani pink, orange or deep green blouse gives a strong, cheerful contrast against the soft lime. Gold jewellery suits it best, as silver can look cold next to the yellow cast.

Is it comfortable for a long day?

Yes. It is a lightweight, breathable pure linen handloom saree with a smooth texture and a slight slub, so it sits easily through a long day at the office, a puja or a brunch. The plain body keeps it simple to drape and manage.

How should I store it?

Fold it and keep it in a cotton bag in a dry place, away from sunlight, which can fade the light lime. Change the folds occasionally so the zari anchal does not develop a permanent crease line.
