Nirmal Pure Khadi Cotton Handloom Saree Dark Gray

What does it look like?

A plain dark slate grey khadi with a faint blue cast, finished with a subtle tonal band along the edge and a tasselled pallu. The slub texture of the handwoven cotton gives the plain surface quiet depth, so it looks calm and understated.

What blouse suits charcoal?

Bright colours pop against charcoal: try rani, coral, mustard or emerald. For a minimal look, black or silver-grey works, with oxidised jewellery. Silver, oxidised or antique gold jewellery all suit a matte khadi.

Is it handwoven?

Yes. It is a handloom saree in pure khadi cotton, handspun and handwoven. Look for slight variations in the yarn as a sign of handwork. No two handloom pieces turn out exactly alike.

What comes with it?

A running blouse within the 6.4 to 6.5 metre length. Your tailor cuts it from one end, and that leaves the full drape for pleats and pallu once the blouse length is taken off.

How do I care for it?

Hand wash it gently with a mild detergent, washed separately, and dry it in the shade. A mild liquid detergent is gentler on khadi than harsh powders. Avoid wringing it hard; press the water out gently instead.
