YO: Parvai Block Printed Organza Silk Sari : Vasanthi
A Parvai Original
An exceptional pure silk organza sari bringing together the fine weaving traditions of Banaras and the generational artistry of hand block printing in Bagru. Handwoven by Mr Taleem in Bajardiha using fine 3-ply, 20–22 denier filature mulberry silk, the translucent organza features delicate extra-weft motifs inspired by the floral vocabulary of 18th-century shawls and patkas. Approximately ten days of pre-loom preparation and eighteen days of meticulous weaving precede its journey to Bagru, where skilled traditional printers bring another layer of colour and artistry to the textile. At Parvai, we believe extraordinary printing deserves an equally extraordinary canvas. The weave must be exceptional before it is printed, and the print must elevate rather than disguise it. Measuring 5.5 metres with an additional metre of blouse fabric and weighing approximately 400 grams, each sari is individually conceived and created only once, a celebration of exceptional materials, generations of craftsmanship and thoughtful creativity.

Care & Product Notes
A few things we would like you to know
Care
Air your Parvai sari after wear and store it in a clean cotton or muslin cover, away from direct sunlight, moisture and plastic. Refold it from time to time so that the same creases do not remain under stress, especially along zari-rich borders and pallus. Heavier saris are best stored folded or gently rolled rather than hung for long periods. Clean only when necessary, preferably through a trusted specialist familiar with fine silk and handwoven textiles.
Handwoven Character
Every Parvai textile is handmade and may carry slight variations in weave, texture, colour, motif placement, finish or dimensions. These are natural to the making process and are part of the textile’s character, not defects. Measurements and weights are approximate.
Colour
