Framed by luminous antique-gold zari borders and accented with fine linear pallu stripes and playful hand-knotted tassels, it effortlessly bridges vibrant royal heritage with relaxed, modern comfort.

Care Instructions
-
Dry clean recommended for the first wash to safeguard the metallic zari and preserve tassel detailing; gentle cold hand wash with a mild detergent thereafter.
-
Iron on medium-high heat on the reverse side while the fabric is slightly damp, always placing a protective cotton cloth over the zari borders.
-
Store folded inside a breathable cotton or muslin bag in a dry closet; change fold creases periodically to keep the weave crisp.
