Mint Green Katan Silk Meenakari Mehrab Handloom Pure Banarasi Saree
Picture yourself walking into the wedding hall in a soft mint green (We offer 100% Colour Customization — want it in a different colour? We'll weave it fresh just for you in the colour of your choice!) saree that photographs beautifully and feels like liquid silk. This pure katan silk Banarasi saree is woven on a traditional loom in Varanasi, with a fine allover floral jaal on the body and a row of jewel-toned meenakari panels along the pallu.
Handloom Banarasi Saree With a Cool, Elegant Base
This handloom Banarasi saree stays calm and graceful across the whole body. The entire field is covered in a tightly woven jaal of leaves, vines and tiny blossoms in a lustrous tonal weave, so the fabric catches light softly instead of glaring. The look suits daytime weddings, engagement ceremonies and festive family gatherings, and it flatters every skin tone.
Meenakari Mehrab Pallu That Draws Every Eye
The showpiece is the pallu. A column of elongated mehrab (arch-shaped) panels runs along it, and each one is filled with a bouquet of flowers in ruby red, magenta, violet, lemon and white. Each colour is worked in separately, like enamel inlay on jewellery, which is how meenakari gets its name. The panels alternate between deep red and lighter floral grounds, so the pallu has a natural rhythm when you drape it.
Handwoven Saree Craftsmanship, Thread by Thread
Every motif on this handwoven saree is placed by the weaver's hand and eye. That is why no two pieces are ever identical, and why the pallu has a richness that machine-made sarees cannot match. Expect the small, charming variations that mark a genuine artisan piece.
Why Katan Silk Is the Fabric of Choice for Bridal and Festive Wear
Katan silk is made from twisted, smooth silk yarn, which gives the fabric its fine hand, natural sheen and long life. It drapes with weight and stays crisp in the pleats, so the saree looks neat from the first hour to the last. If you are comparing options, our full range of pure katan silk Banarasi sarees is worth a look, but this piece stands out for its pastel base and the vivid contrast of its pallu.
The Kadwa Weave Behind the Allover Jaal
The jaal is created with the kadwa weave, in which each motif is woven individually rather than trailing threads across the back. The result is sharp, raised patterning with a clean finish. That is why a Kadwa saree like this one feels like a family heirloom and is often passed from mother to daughter.
Lock Weaving for Motifs That Last
Lock weaving interlaces the supplementary threads securely into the base, so the motifs stay firmly in place through years of wear. It is one reason a Banarasi saree of this quality holds its beauty for decades.
Borders, Stripes and Pallu Detail
The wide borders carry slim lemon-toned stripes that run through them, along with bands of small floral patterns in a shimmering weave. The pallu end continues the theme with broad striped sections and intricate floral borders. Together they frame the body neatly and give you a polished, classic drape.
Saree Length and Matching Blouse Piece
The saree measures 6.5 metres, enough for a comfortable drape and a generous pallu. It comes with a matching blouse piece in a strip pattern, so you can get a coordinated blouse stitched without hunting for a separate fabric.
How to Style This Saree
For a bridal-guest or festive look, pair this mint green (We offer 100% Colour Customization — want it in a different colour? We'll weave it fresh just for you in the colour of your choice!) saree with a contrast blouse in deep magenta or ruby red to echo the meenakari panels. Add polki or kundan jewellery and a low bun with fresh flowers. For a quieter look, choose a matching blouse and minimal pearl jewellery.
