Pink Handloom Self Brocade Vintage Saree – Scalloped Medallion Zari Weave

This pink handloom self brocade vintage silk saree is woven in Dharmavaram, Andhra Pradesh, in the self-brocade manner, where the patterning is raised tone-on-tone out of the body itself rather than set against a contrasting ground. Scalloped medallions run across the soft pink base in Subham Zari gold zari, and a dense floral border closes the drape. The effect is quieter than heavy contrast zari work, which is what gives these vintage pieces their restraint. Pieces in this weave run between 850 and 900 grams, giving them real presence on the drape. A graceful choice for celebrations. Pairs well with a contrast blouse. Dry clean recommended.
