Red Silk Tanchoi Banarasi Saree with Vintage Paisley Pallu
Silk Tanchoi · Full Locked Weave · Vintage-Inspired Paisley Pallu · Blouse Included
A luminous red silk Banarasi saree woven all over in the Tanchoi technique. Delicate floral vines and paisley motifs cover the body, while an elaborate vintage-inspired pallu brings together grand rows of paisleys, floral bands and fine ornamental detailing. The full locked weave leaves no loose threads visible on the reverse, giving the saree a smooth, beautifully finished back and an elegant drape. A matching blouse piece is included.

Tanchoi is prized for its dense, fully interlocked construction: the supplementary wefts are secured within the ground weave instead of floating across the reverse. The result is a richly patterned silk with a remarkably clean back, fluid handle and enduring finish. This red Banarasi draws on vintage textile design through its scrolling floral field and stately paisley pallu.
