Rustic Charm Matka Silk Maroon Saree

What is this maroon saree like?

It is a pure handloom weave in 100% matka silk, so the slubbed, textured surface of the raw silk shows through the deep maroon. A narrow orange-copper border runs along the edge, and the pallu is heavily worked with tonal leaf motifs and small butis.

Does maroon suit a wedding?

Yes. As a guest, maroon with a copper border is a natural wedding and reception choice, especially with antique gold jewellery. It also works for festivals, temple visits, dinners and dressed-up office days.

What makes matka silk special?

It is made from raw silk with uneven, thick threads, which give it a coarse, textured, rustic surface and a rich, natural feel. That handwoven texture is what sets matka apart, and here it shows clearly through the maroon.

Which blouse comes with it?

An attached blouse piece is included within the 6.3 to 6.4 metre length. The blouse worn by the model is for the photoshoot only and is not part of the package.

What blouse colours go with maroon and copper?

A copper or antique gold blouse matches the border, while mustard, teal or bottle green makes a strong contrast with maroon. Keep the cut simple so the textured silk and leaf motifs stay the focus.

What care does it need?

Dry clean only. Store it in its own bag in a dry place, change the folds regularly, and air it in non-humid weather. Iron on low heat from the reverse side to protect the texture.
