Lavender Raw Silk Banarasi Saree – Antique Zari Boota Meenakari Border

Lavender Raw Silk with Antique Zari Bootas
SKU-11904

Lavender has a fresh, gentle charm, and on raw silk it gains texture and character. This Lavender Raw Silk Banarasi Saree – Antique Zari Boota Meenakari Border pairs the soft colour with antique zari bootas across the body and a meenakari border that adds a touch of colour at the edge. It comes to you through The Panaya, Kamalya Textiles' Banarasi label in Varanasi. Elegant and distinctive, it suits day weddings, festive occasions and family celebrations.

The Fabric: Raw Silk

Raw silk has a slightly textured surface, a crisp hand and a soft, natural lustre, which gives it a more earthy character than smooth, glossy silks. At 697 g, this saree has a comfortable, well-balanced weight, with enough body to show off the bootas and border. You can see more in our Raw silk Banarasi sarees collection.

The Craftsmanship: Antique Zari Boota & Meenakari Border

Each boota, a bold, stand-alone motif, is woven in Antique Zari, Meenakari Border, whose softened, vintage gold tone gives the design warmth without glare. The border is worked in meenakari, where coloured threads are woven into the pattern for a bright, enamel-like effect. The quiet zari on the body and the colour on the border balance each other well.

Design & Colour Story

Lavender is cool, soft and romantic, and the antique zari bootas add a warm counterpoint to it. The meenakari border brings a pop of colour at the edge, and raw silk's texture gives the whole saree a rich, tactile feel. It is a pastel with depth and personality.

Occasion & Styling Guide

• Wedding & Pre-Wedding Ceremonies: A lovely choice for a day wedding, an engagement or a mehendi. Pair it with antique gold jewellery to echo the bootas, and soft curls.
• Festive Celebrations & Puja: For Janmashtami, Diwali mornings or a festive brunch, lavender looks fresh and graceful. Add jhumkas and a blouse in one of the border's meenakari colours.
• Traditional Family Gatherings: For a baby shower, a family anniversary or a get-together with friends, wear it with simple pearl jewellery and a neat bun.
