Blue Katan Silk Banarasi Saree – Kadwa Horse Booti Royal Blue Border

Blue Katan with Kadwa Horses
SKU-11637

Horses have long stood for strength, freedom and nobility, and in Banarasi weaving they bring a regal, storytelling quality to a saree. This Blue Katan Silk Banarasi Saree – Kadwa Horse Booti Royal Blue Border features kadwa horse bootis across the body and a royal blue border, which keeps the frame in the same colour family for a refined finish. It is part of the kadwa collection from The Panaya, the Varanasi house of Kamalya Textiles. Distinctive and dignified, it suits receptions, formal celebrations and festive evenings.

The Fabric: Katan Silk

Katan's smooth, close weave holds figurative motifs crisply, which suits detailed designs like these horses. At 553 g, the saree is light and graceful, and the gentle katan sheen gives the blue a rich, even tone. See more of this fabric in our Katan silk Banarasi sarees collection.

The Craftsmanship: Kadwa Horse Booti & Royal Blue Border

Horse motifs echo the royal processions and hunting scenes of old Banarasi brocades, and here they appear as individual horse bootis. Each horse is woven in Kadwa, Royal Blue Border: on every pass of the shuttle, the weaver adds the pattern thread separately for each motif, building the horses line by line with no thread running between them. It is exacting, time-consuming work, and the result is crisp, durable motifs. The royal blue border completes the design. Discover more kadwa sarees in our Kadwa Banarasi sarees collection.

Design & Colour Story

This blue is rich and classic, and the royal blue border adds depth while keeping the palette harmonious. The horse bootis give the saree character and a quiet sense of heritage, ideal for the woman who wants something different from the usual florals. Find more blues in our Banarasi sarees collection.
