Paithani Saree - Pure Silk
Paithani Saree - Pure Silk.
Single Muniya Paithani Saree - Pure silk. Sourced from the weaver's form of Paithan in Aurangabad, Maharastra. Handwoven
One paithani saree takes roughly 8 to 10 days to complete. What makes a real Paithani saree unique is the weaving method, the ornate designs, and its splendid latticework of gold and silver thread. This saree is apart from others because of its proprietary weaving technique called the “Pallav.” The method involves weaving two colored threads, producing a trademark kaleidoscope effect. Artisans manage the entire process by hand, from the dying of the yarn to the actual weaving. They use handlooms to weave the saree’s main section. The pallav, with its distinct borders, is similar to tapestry weaving, one of the world’s most ancient weaving techniques.
