Collection: Cutwork Weaving Saree
A Cutwork Banarasi saree is a stunning blend of traditional artistry and intricate weaving techniques, originating from the cultural hub of Varanasi. This type of saree is distinguished by its "cutwork" weaving method, where designs are first woven on the loom, and the base threads are meticulously cut away to highlight the intricate motifs. Floral patterns, vines, leaves, and other nature-inspired motifs often adorn these sarees, giving them a delicate and intricate appearance.The cutwork technique is done on a power loom, making it more affordable than other types of Banarasi sarees, yet it maintains the elegance and beauty of handloom pieces. The fabric, usually silk or a silk blend, is light and easy to drape, making it perfect for festive wear, weddings, or formal occasions.
Despite being more accessible, Cutwork Banarasi sarees maintain the rich heritage of Banarasi weaving, offering a balance of opulence and subtlety. Their sophisticated design makes them a popular choice for women who want the traditional Banarasi look but with a modern touch of minimalism and craftsmanship.
