Nafees Ivory Rangkaat Kora Silk Kaduwa Banarasi Saree
Kora Silk Rangkaat · Katan Silk Border · Full Kaduwa Weave · Blouse Included
Nafees — valuable, choice, fine and elegant — is sheer beauty in Kora silk. Across the luminous ivory body, Rangkaat bars in blush, lilac, yellow and soft gold form a graceful rhythm, each element individually worked in the full Kaduwa technique. A rich crimson Katan silk border frames the airy body with intricate floral zari and delicate multicolour Meenakari, opening into a grand, gleaming pallu. Light and translucent yet magnificently detailed, this is a Banarasi of rare presence. A matching blouse piece is included.

Nafees is named for something precious, refined and chosen with discernment. Its character comes from the meeting of two silks: feather-light Kora gives the body its ethereal translucence, while Katan silk lends structure and lustre to the crimson border. Rangkaat introduces changing coloured wefts across the saree, and the full Kaduwa method builds every motif separately on the loom rather than carrying threads across the reverse. The result is exacting Banarasi craftsmanship expressed with unusual lightness and modern grace.
