{"product_id":"banarasi-kota-silk","title":"Banarasi kota silk","description":"\u003cp\u003eA Banarasi Kota Silk Saree is a stunning fusion of two distinct Indian weaving traditions: the lightweight, airy weave of Kota Doria from Rajasthan and the opulent, royal gold threadwork (Zari) of Banaras (Varanasi).\u003cbr\u003eThis blend creates a garment that is simultaneously regal and incredibly comfortable to wear, making it a favorite for daytime weddings, festivals, and formal summer events.\u003cbr\u003eThe Texture (Khats): The defining base of the saree is its unique square-checkered pattern, woven directly into the fabric. These tiny squares are called khats.\u003cbr\u003eThe Fabric Blend: It uses a fine blend of pure silk and cotton threads. The silk provides a subtle, sophisticated sheen and durability, while the cotton ensures it remains highly breathable, translucent, and light as air.\u003cbr\u003eThe Banarasi Touch: What elevates a standard Kota saree into a \"Banarasi Kota\" is the addition of rich brocade work. Master weavers from Banaras embellish the translucent fabric with exquisite gold or silver zari motifs (butis) across the body, paired with an ornate, thickly woven zari border and pallu (the decorative end of the saree).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e📋 Product Specifications \u0026amp; Care\u003cbr\u003eFabric: Premium Silk-Cotton Blend (Kota base)\u003cbr\u003eCraftsmanship: Handloom\/Powerloom Banarasi Zari Brocade Work (Note: Update based on your actual stock)\u003cbr\u003eSaree Length: 5.5 Meters\u003cbr\u003eBlouse Piece: Includes an unstitched matching blouse piece (80 cm)\u003cbr\u003eOccasion: Festive wear, Day Weddings, Rituals, and Formal Celebrations\u003cbr\u003eCare Instructions: Dry clean only.
