Handwoven pure swarnachari bishnupuri silk saree, adorned with woven gold motifs and butas with meenakari work.
*Swarnachari, also known as the illustrious sister of Baluchari, has gold zari threads incorporated in the weave, as opposed to resham threads in Baluchari. Woven on jacquard handlooms, these rich sarees are characterised by intricate ornamentation in palla and borders, depicting mythological stories, folk tales, historical and religious texts.
*A single Swarnachari saree takes nearly 115 hours to be woven and is a testimony of high-quality craftsmanship. An art weave offering traditionally from Bengal, Balucharis and Swarnacharis have come a long way after almost being extinct at one point and have survived only to return in full glory. Currently, these sarees continue to be the pride of Bengal and a treasured collectible that is a part of India's rich heritage.
