Unique Maheshwari Pure Tissue Silk Saree Orange

What shade is it in person?

It reads as a copper-gold tissue with a rose-copper tone, and a plum-pink shimmer shows in the folds. Tissue changes with the light, and screens vary, so expect the shade to shift between warm copper and gold on the flat surfaces and deeper plum-pink where the fabric falls into folds.

Why does tissue look different from different angles?

Tissue has a sheen like tissue paper, so the base colour and the shimmer show differently as the light changes. It looks deeper in shadow and more golden where light hits it.

What blouse comes with it?

The blouse piece comes attached to the saree, in the pallu colour, and your tailor cuts it away before stitching. The saree is 6.3 to 6.4 metres long. If you want a different look, a gold or deep plum blouse also suits the copper-gold shimmer.

How do I care for it?

Dry clean only. Store it in a separate bag in a dry place, change the folds regularly so it does not crease permanently, and air it occasionally in dry conditions.

Is it comfortable for long hours?

Yes. Tissue is lightweight with a delicate drape, and the handloom cotton silk base keeps it from feeling heavy, so it suits a long function where you are on your feet.
