Pankaja Slate Sage
Evoking the quiet grace of a mist-laden pond at dawn, this saree marries the earthy serenity of slate-sage green with the vibrant awakening of hand-embroidered lotuses. Woven from authentic handspun Khadi, its textured grain breathes effortlessly against the skin, offering an airy, sculptural drape that softens with every wear. Scattered blooming flora in vivid fuchsia and herbal olive-green trail across the fabric, culminating in a rhythmic pallu finished with playful marigold-yellow and lapis tassels—a soulful tribute to conscious handloom artistry.

Dry clean only for the first wash to preserve the natural dye consistency and delicate tassel work.
-
For subsequent washes, hand-wash gently in cold water using a mild, chemical-free detergent.
-
Dry flat in a shaded area inside-out; avoid wringing or direct sunlight.
-
Warm iron on the reverse side of the embroidery, or use a handheld steamer.
