Jamdani Charm Pure Cotton Tant Saree White

What is the border on this one like?

A wide red border with a zigzag edge and a fine gold line runs along the white body. The zigzag gives the border a temple-style edge, and it frames the drape crisply once the pleats are tucked in.

What motifs are on the body?

Small round pink buti are spread across the white body, woven in by hand with the Jamdani extra-weft technique. They add a soft touch of colour between the red border and the striped pallu without making the saree busy.

Which occasions does this saree suit?

It sits most naturally in office wear, where white and red look crisp and composed. It also suits summer days and travel, temple visits and pujas, and kitty or brunch plans with friends.

Is a blouse included?

No, it comes as the saree alone, without a blouse piece, so you can choose the fit and sleeve you like. A red, pink or white cotton blouse works well, or try an Ikkat blouse for a bit of contrast.

What are the measurements?

The saree is 5.4 to 5.5 metres long without a blouse, and 47 to 48 inches in height from border to border. That gives room for full pleats and a pallu of comfortable length in a regular drape.

How do I care for a white cotton saree?

Hand wash it gently with a mild detergent, and keep it separate from other clothes, since the red border can release some colour onto the white. Dry it in the shade and avoid wringing. Long hours in strong sun can yellow white cotton.
