Grey Chanderi Pure Pattu Silk Handloom Saree With Black Stripes
“Tez hawa aur shab bhar baarish
Andar chup aur baahar baarish
Aese pehle kab barsi thi
Aankhen aur barabar baarish”
She was taken back in time as she sat listening to Abeeda Parveen on her radio. Head to the skies, wine glass in her hand, exquisitely crafted saree; that’s how the grey chanderi saree made her feel, priceless. The discreet symphony of black stripes on grey and how she always teased the pattern with rich black kajal in her eyes and silver baalis in her ears. Not to miss, the large black bindi and a stud for nose pin. She was confident and mature in her own right, just how she had always wanted to feel wearing the charismatic saree.
This grey chanderi with black stripes is every bit enigmatic as it is romantic. Drape it and you wouldn’t want any other.

Heritage and Origin
Steeped in history and an ancient culture which is believed to date back to the Vedic period, Chanderi, a small town in Madhya Pradesh, is surrounded by lush hills, forests and lakes. It is also home to one of the most famous handloom clusters in India, where weaving has been a part of the town’s socioeconomic character for centuries. The eponymous Chanderi fabric, which is made from a mix of silk, cotton and zari, is unique for its translucence and sheer texture. Traditionally, motifs were inspired by the town’s surrounding natural beauty and incorporated elements such as animals & birds, flowers, heavenly bodies and even gold coins (asharfis). Chanderi sarees are made using a technique called tana-bana, or the warp and weft method.
The production of Chanderi fabric (including the motifs) has evolved with time. Till about 50 years ago, all handwoven fabrics had soft, natural hues and muted tones. Since then, weavers have incorporated vibrant colours and vivid combinations in their looms. Katan silk is a type of fabric which is made by intertwining filaments of silk which gives it a firm and durable character. Katan originated in Persia and became popular in India during the Mughal reign.
