Green Silk Saree with Woven Buttas

This one is green, in silk. Across the body: buttas, the small motifs repeated across the body, and floral work. The metallic thread, or zari, reads gold here. The pallu, which is the decorated end worn over the shoulder, carries the densest work. It carries a Silk Mark tag, the Indian certification for genuine silk. It reads best under evening light. A blue blouse piece is included. Every saree we list states its fiber content, country of origin and care in the details below. Silk of this weight holds a pleat well and does not need pressing between wearings.

Details

Fabric / weave	Silk
Fiber content	Silk (Silk Mark certified)
Blouse piece	Included, unstitched
Country of origin	India
Care	Dry clean the first wash. After that, if dry cleaning is not possible, hand wash gently in cold water without detergent and let it air dry in shade — never machine wash, tumble dry or wring it. Wash the body separately from the zari border and pallu, which may be dyed differently. Store it wrapped in cotton cloth rather than plastic, somewhere cool and dry, and unfold it every few months to let it air. Iron through a thin cotton cloth on medium heat, never directly on the silk or the zari. (Supplier's care guidance.)
