Gulab Bari Tissue Banarasi Saree

₹84,000

A jangla runs one continuous creeping vine across the whole field rather than repeating a motif, so the draft cannot be shortened and the loom cannot be sped up. The tissue ground is a zari weft against a silk warp, which is why it reads gold in low light and pink in daylight.
