02
Kath
The Border
Real gold zari, motif-rich, often peacock or vine.
03
Padar
The Pallu
The saree’s autograph — densest weaving lives here.
04
Zari
The Gold
Flattened gold drawn into silken thread, by hand.
The Zari
Flattened gold, drawn by hand.
The Consultation
Where your Paithani is first imagined.
