Product Description

Red and slate blue checkered Ajrakh block print across the body, with fine line detailing within each section that gives this saree a graphic, contemporary feel. The gold zari border catches light along the edge, and then the pallu arrives - rich red Ajrakh block print with touches of blue woven through, a gold zari band, and a deep black finish with intricate Ajrakh motifs and black tassels. A cotton saree that has no business looking this grand.

About The Fabric

Mul cotton is a finely woven cotton known for its exceptional softness and airy, breathable feel. Lighter than regular cotton, it drapes with ease and feels gentle on the skin, often described as a second-skin fabric. Well-suited for long hours of wear, it’s an ideal choice for everyday comfort, with a natural, understated elegance, especially in warmer climates.

The zari border and richly woven zari pallu add a festive touch, making the saree just as fitting for celebrations as it is for everyday wear. The subtle sheen of the zari beautifully complements the handcrafted Ajrakh, bringing a touch of occasion without taking away from the simplicity of the fabric.

Style it for

  • Everyday wear, and slow, easy days
  • Office wear: works well with structured blouses in solid tones, simple accessories like ear studs, and closed-toe pumps or formal sandals for a polished finish
  • Brunches, cafe hopping, and day plans
  • Cultural days at college or work
  • Casual outings and relaxed gatherings
  • Family gatherings and low-key festive occasions
  • Mul cotton Ajrakh sarees with zari borders can be styled for special events with statement jewellery like chunky oxidized silver or traditional gold-toned pieces depending on the mood
  • Contemporary drapes and experimental styling, for example, cinch it with a waist-belt or try a pant-style drape
  • Art exhibitions, cultural performances, and informal dinner parties
  • Ideal for long hours and for those new to wearing sarees
Note

The blouse shown on the model is styled for the photoshoot and is not included with the saree. Every saree comes with an unstitched blouse piece.

Wash & Care
  • Dry clean for the first few washes.
  • Thereafter, gently hand wash separately in cold water using a mild detergent.
  • Minor colour bleeding during the first few washes is normal and expected.
  • Do not soak or wring.
  • Do not machine wash.
  • Dry inside out in shade. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight to preserve colour richness.
  • Avoid direct contact with perfume.
  • Ensure the saree is clean and completely dry before storing. Air it out after each use.
  • Store in a breathable cotton or muslin bag, away from moisture and humidity.
  • Avoid storing in plastic covers, as they trap moisture and may damage the natural dyes.
  • Refold the saree periodically to help preserve the fabric and prevent crease marks.
  • Air the saree every few months.
  • Special Care for Ajrakh Mirror Work Sarees: To preserve the mirror detailing, we recommend dry cleaning only. Avoid hand washing or machine washing, as repeated rubbing or agitation may loosen the mirrors over time. Store the saree folded in the muslin bag provided, avoiding any heavy pressure on the mirror work.
Disclaimer
  • Minor variations in colour, print alignment, or dye intensity are natural and not considered defects. In fact, these details are what make each piece unique, reflecting the beauty of artisanal craftsmanship.
  • Colours may appear slightly different due to lighting and screen settings across devices.
Shipping & Delivery

  • In-stock Sarees: Delivered within 4-7 business days.

  • After inspection, eligible returns are issued as store credit valid for 6 months.

    — If a replacement is unavailable, a full refund will be issued.
