Banarasi Tissue Silk Sarees
Banarasi Tissue Silk Sarees are a luxurious blend of tradition and shimmer, originating from the ancient city of Varanasi (Banaras), India. These sarees are woven with fine silk threads and metallic zari, giving them a delicate, glossy texture that catches the light beautifully. The “tissue” effect comes from the interweaving of silk and zari, creating a translucent, golden sheen that makes the fabric appear almost ethereal.
Key Features:
- Fabric: A mix of pure silk and zari threads
- Texture: Lightweight, glossy, and slightly crisp
- Designs: Intricate floral motifs, Mughal-inspired patterns, and geometric borders
- Occasions: Perfect for weddings, festive celebrations, and grand events
- Colors: Often found in gold, silver, pastel, and jewel tones
Styling Tip: Pair a Banarasi Tissue Silk Saree with traditional gold jewelry or kundan sets for a regal look. A sleek bun adorned with fresh flowers complements the saree’s elegance.
Care Instructions: Dry clean only. Store in a muslin cloth to preserve the zari’s shine and prevent moisture damage.
