Handwoven Black & White Striped Mashru Silk Banarasi Saree silk kaftan top self-colour zari tanchoi — theA crisp mashru silk saree in even black and white horizontal stripes, clean and graphic across the full drape. Near the end a bold magenta pink band breaks the monochrome before it closes on a deep black border. The satin mashru weave gives the stripes a quiet sheen, and the silk over cotton base keeps it light and fuss free. A modern, statement making saree. A Khinkhwab piece.
