Product Details
Banarasi Mashru Katan Rangkat Saree
Step into the timeless grandeur of Banaras with this exquisite Mashru Katan Rangkat Saree — a rare confluence of two legendary weaving traditions. Crafted by master weavers on the ghats of Varanasi, this saree is a living heirloom that carries centuries of artisanal heritage in every thread.
Fabric & Weave
- Fabric: Pure Mashru Katan Silk — a luxurious blend of silk and cotton, soft against the skin yet richly lustrous on the surface
- Technique: Rangkat (Rangkaat) — a rare double-weave technique where two contrasting colours are woven simultaneously, creating a stunning colour-play as the saree drapes
- Weave: Traditional handloom, Varanasi
Pallu
- Richly adorned with dense zari buti and intricate jaal motifs in pure gold/silver zari
- Features a broad, statement zari border with traditional Banarasi floral and geometric patterns
- The Rangkat effect on the pallu creates a breathtaking two-tone shimmer — a signature of this rare weave
Body
- Elegant Rangkat body with subtle colour shift — the fabric appears to change hue as it catches the light
- Delicate booti (buti) work scattered across the body in fine zari
- Smooth, fluid drape characteristic of pure Katan silk
Border
- Contrasting zari border running along both edges
- Traditional Banarasi motifs — kadwa or meenakari detailing (as applicable)
Blouse Piece
- Comes with a matching unstitched blouse piece (~80 cm)
- Blouse fabric mirrors the Rangkat colour palette with complementary zari detailing
- Suitable for a tailored fitted blouse or a designer cut

Care & Maintenance
To preserve the beauty and longevity of your pure Banarasi silk saree, wrap it in breathable muslin or cotton cloth — never plastic. Store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, and refold every 3–6 months to prevent permanent creases.
Avoid contact with perfume, deodorant, or harsh detergents. Dry clean only. To protect the delicate zari work, never iron directly on it.
For storage, place silica gel packets or neem leaves alongside the saree to guard against moisture and insects.
