Handloom Butta Sarees

What Is a Butta Saree?

A butta saree is a silk saree with small repeated motifs woven at regular intervals across the body. In Dharmavaram handloom weaving these buttas are woven on the loom rather than printed, so the motif has real depth on both faces of the fabric.

Butta Spacing and Density

Closer butta spacing gives a richer, busier body; wider spacing reads lighter and more contemporary. Each product page lists the motif and pattern for that saree.

Pairing with Borders

Butta bodies are usually paired with a contrasting border and pallu so the eye has somewhere to rest. This makes them a versatile everyday-festive choice.
