The openness of the organza also gives the embroidery space to stand apart rather than making the surface feel heavily embellished.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eAcross the body, \u003cb\u003ezardozi meenakari bootis are embroidered by hand\u003c\/b\u003e, bringing together gold-toned embroidery with jewel-coloured accents. Placed at considered intervals, the circular floral bootis introduce richness while allowing the red organza to remain the dominant visual element.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eThe defining feature is the \u003cb\u003econtrast purple vintage handwoven Banarasi border\u003c\/b\u003e. Sona zari forms an intricate composition of paisleys, florals and curling vines, with meenakari accents appearing within the weave. The purple ground creates a striking frame against the red, while the softened lustre of the vintage zari gives the border a depth and character that comes with age.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eKaushiki brings two distinct traditions together—the precision of an older Banarasi weave and newly executed hand embroidery. By placing a preserved vintage border within a contemporary saree, The Heirloom Vault allows exceptional workmanship from another time to return to the wardrobe, creating an heirloom intended to be worn today and passed forward.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eSingle piece.

Kundan or polki jewellery with coloured stones would complement the red, purple and meenakari details beautifully. For a more traditional wedding look, style it with an antique gold blouse and stacked red or green glass bangles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eKey Details\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eColor:\u003c\/b\u003e Red\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFabric:\u003c\/b\u003e Pure Silk Organza\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eEmbroidery:\u003c\/b\u003e Hand-Embroidered Zardozi Meenakari Bootis\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBorder:\u003c\/b\u003e Contrast Purple Vintage Handwoven Banarasi Zari Border\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBorder Detailing:\u003c\/b\u003e Sona Zari with Meenakari Accents\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBorder Motifs:\u003c\/b\u003e Paisleys, Florals and Scrolling Vines\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBlouse:\u003c\/b\u003e Not included, allowing for versatile styling\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeaving Cluster:\u003c\/b\u003e Banaras\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eMeasurement:\u003c\/b\u003e Length – 5.50 m\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAvailability:\u003c\/b\u003e Ready to Ship\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eDelivery Timeline:\u003c\/b\u003e 10–12 days with finishing\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003ePlease Note\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eThis is a handmade saree; slight irregularities are inherent to the craft and are part of its individual character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eAs the saree incorporates a vintage handwoven border, natural variations in the tone and finish of the zari may be present and are characteristic of its age and craftsmanship.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eSlight colour variation may occur due to differences in studio lighting and screen settings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eAccessories and blouse shown in the images are for styling purposes only and are not included with the product.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"WeaverStory","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50300558278913,"sku":"MTO-202629J","price":38995.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1027\/2035\/files\/MTO-202629J_1.jpg?v=1788945119","url":"https:\/\/weaverstory.com\/products\/products-kaushiki-red-organza-zardozi-meenakari-vintage-banarasi-saree","provider":"WeaverStory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
