Frequently Asked Questions
What is a booti motif in Banarasi weaving?
A booti (also spelled buti) is a small, repeating motif — typically a stylised floral or leaf form — woven across the body of a saree using zari or coloured thread. Bootis are one of the most classic elements of Banarasi design and vary in size and complexity from piece to piece.
What is Banarasi summer silk?
Banarasi summer silk is a lighter-weight silk fabric woven in Varanasi, designed to be more breathable and less heavy than traditional Katan silk. It retains the lustre and drape characteristic of Banarasi textiles while being more comfortable in warmer weather.
Does Neelaya come with a blouse piece?
Yes, Neelaya includes a matching blouse piece.
How should I care for a Banarasi silk saree?
Dry clean only. Store in a soft muslin cloth away from direct sunlight and moisture. Avoid contact with perfume or deodorant directly on the fabric.
