An eclectic mix of Uppada’s traditional weave and Bangalore’s contemporary appeal, this one-of-a-kind saree would be a valuable addition to your wardrobe. Clearly a handloom number, it is made from pure homegrown silk and is fit to be worn to the finest weddings and parties of the season. The bitone colour palette is the most statement-making aspect of this saree - solid gravelly cream on the field, a seductive dash of scarlet on the endpiece. Undertones of gold throughout the region of both colours.

Zoom in on the Bodhi tree motifs woven onto the silk. Note the distinction between the curvaceous branches and the lush verdure amidst them, each finished with identical precision and persistence on the part of the artisan. The endpiece features the same motifs, only larger. They are superimposed over miniscule panels of simple, traditional motifs such as paisleys and triangles. This head-turning number is best teamed with the finest pieces from your gold collection.
