Frequently Asked Questions about Handwoven Banarasi Sarees

What types of sarees do you carry?

We carry a wide range: Kanjivaram silk, Banarasi silk, Tussar, organza, tissue, chanderi, linen, chiffon, georgette, Patola, Paithani, Pochampally Ikat, Bandhani, cotton, and designer sarees. We keep adding new trending styles regularly.

How do I pick the right saree for a wedding?

For the main ceremony, Kanjivaram or Banarasi silk in red, maroon, or gold is a safe bet. For lighter events like sangeet, try organza or georgette. Not sure? Message us on WhatsApp and we'll help you choose based on the occasion.

What's the difference between Kanjivaram and Banarasi?

Kanjivaram sarees come from Tamil Nadu. They're heavier silk with bold colors and temple-style borders. Banarasi sarees are from Varanasi with softer drape and Mughal-inspired brocade patterns. Both are great for special occasions, just different styles.

Do you ship sarees across the US?

Yes. We're based in California and ship across the entire US with flat rate shipping. Everything gets carefully packaged so your saree arrives in great condition.

How should I store silk sarees?

Wrap them in muslin or cotton cloth, not plastic, since that traps moisture. Keep them in a cool, dry spot away from sunlight. Try to refold along different lines every few months so you don't get permanent creases.

Are your sarees handwoven?

Many of them are, sourced from weavers in Kanchipuram, Varanasi, and other traditional weaving regions. We also carry machine-woven and semi-handloom options. Each product page has the details on weave type.
