Mrinalini — Purple Pure Silk Organza Saree with Vintage Banarasi Zari Border and Zardozi Bootis

Created as a contemporary setting for exceptional vintage craftsmanship, Mrinalini pairs rich purple pure silk organza with a vintage Banarasi zari border, finished with hand-embroidered zardozi bootis across the body.

The sheer organza carries a gentle lustre, shifting from vivid purple to deeper tones as the fabric gathers. Scattered zardozi bootis, worked in metallic tones with subtle red accents, bring measured detail to the otherwise light and translucent body. Their placement adds a festive character without overwhelming the fabric.

Framing the saree is a vintage handwoven Banarasi border, where birds, florals and curling vines unfold in antique-toned sona zari. Red accents appear through the composition, adding definition against the purple ground, while fine geometric bands frame the elaborate central weave.

The contrast is central to the saree — intricate vintage craftsmanship against sheer organza, with newly embroidered zardozi adding another layer of handwork. The result retains the character of the original border while making it relevant to contemporary occasion dressing.

Part of The Heirloom Vault, Mrinalini reflects the collection's idea of carrying exceptional craftsmanship forward — worn today and treasured for the future.

Single piece. No repeats.
