Red Khaddi Georgette Banarasi Saree with Zari Polka Dots
Kaduwa Weave · Zari Polka Dots · Gold Pallu · Blouse Included
A bold, retro-inspired Banarasi saree in pure khaddi georgette — the weightless handwoven silk-cotton fabric that Varanasi is celebrated for. The deep red body is woven all over with large graphic zari polka dots in antique gold, each circle filled with a fine chevron texture in the kaduwa weave technique. The pallu is a solid panel of rich antique gold zari, creating a dramatic contrast. A narrow red border with a delicate zari edge finishes the drape. Blouse piece in matching red included.

Khaddi georgette is a Banarasi speciality — handwoven on pit looms from fine silk and cotton, it has a distinctive crinkled texture and a lightness that sets it apart from heavier silks. The kaduwa technique, where each motif is individually woven using a separate shuttle rather than a running weft, gives the zari dots their clean edges and extra depth. The result is a saree that feels effortless to wear but looks unmistakably rich.
