Nirmal Rang Pure Cotton Handloom Saree Maroon

What is the maroon like?

It is a deep red-maroon with a visible fine texture in the weave. The tassels at the end are a brighter red, tied against a dark band, so the pallu has a warm, lively edge.

How is the pallu finished?

A row of red tassels with dark beads finishes the pallu end. It is the only embellishment on the plain maroon body, and the brighter red of the tassels gives the end a warm, lively edge.

What blouse goes with maroon?

The running blouse is maroon. For contrast, a mustard, gold, green or white blouse all look classic with a deep maroon cotton, and a block-printed blouse makes it more casual.

Is it comfortable for long hours?

Yes. Pure cotton is soft, breathable and lightweight, so it stays comfortable through a long day at work, a puja or a day out. Its natural fibres let air through, so it does not feel heavy or sticky even on a warm day.

Will the colour bleed?

Deep colours in cotton should be washed separately, so wash it on its own, gently by hand with a mild detergent, and dry it in shade. Keeping it out of direct sun helps the deep colour stay even.
