Saree Description :
100 percent handwoven, this Pure Tussar Silk Kantha Stitch saree is one of our finest, from Aangi. The mustard golden dyed tussar base of the saree, renders it a certain royalty. Moreover, the hand stitched Kantha embroidery on that, adds to that regalia. The entire body of the saree has graceful hand stitched ‘kalka’ woven on it. The border and the frame of the pallu is a very modern kantha stitch, stitched in double-fold inverse temple pattern. The pallu of this saree is however, the star of this woven art piece. It is a dense and extremely meticulous kantha stitch of ‘lata-pata’ pattern, gracing the pallu. The entire kantha stitch is embroidered out of onion pink, green and red cotton threads. The burst of these keenly chosen colours on the mustard base, makes this saree a literal art piece to be flaunted! Bani in sanskrit, is associated with Saraswati, the goddess of speech. The goddess with whom we associate the colour yellow and shades of it. Owing to its beautiful mustard base, we choose to name this saree Bani, drawing from the obvious reference. Bani hence, is a woven ode to every women who is fighting for their voice in the society. It is a woven ode to the power that a woman’s speech holds, and will hold forever!
