Whispering Petals Blockprint Chanderi Silk Saree Soft Beige

What is the floral print like?

Blue flowers with olive green leafy vines are printed across the body in a medium scale. The blue and olive pairing is fresh and cool, and the print is open enough that the saree looks light rather than busy, with each flower clearly visible.

What makes the pallu stand out?

The pallu finishes in a bright blue end with green and blue banding and bouquet motifs. That strong blue gives the drape a clear focal point at the shoulder. A green geometric border with a bright blue edge and a yellow line runs along the hem.

Is the blouse fabric included?

Yes, a blouse piece is attached, and the 6.3 to 6.4 metre length includes it. A bright blue blouse matches the pallu end, while olive green ties in with the vines for a softer, more muted pairing.

Does hand block printing mean small flaws?

Small variations, yes, but not flaws. Each motif is stamped by hand with a carved wooden block, so a flower may print slightly lighter or a vine may meet its neighbour a touch off. That is the sign of handwork and why no two sarees are exactly alike.

How do I store it so it stays fresh?

Keep it in a separate cloth bag in a dry cupboard. Refold it along new lines from time to time and air it on dry days. A light saree shows marks more, so store it clean and away from damp, and always dry clean it.

Is it light enough for summer?

Yes. Chanderi silk-cotton is lightweight and breathable, and the cool blue and olive print on a white ground feels fresh on warm days at work or at brunch. Pair it with a petticoat in a matching light shade for an easy summer look.
