Alekhya - Green Asparagus Color Handloom Pure Zari Kota Doria Saree with Pichwai Art
Picture yourself draped in Alekhya, our handwoven Pure Zari Kota Doria Saree, resplendent in the rare, dignified hue of Grey Asparagus. Inspired by traditional "Pichwai art", its silver and gold zari motifs shimmer like stars against a dusky sky. Every thread whispers grace, every motif an homage to timeless beauty. Woven from a luxurious blend of silk and cotton, Alekhya embraces you with the soft and sheer texture that defines classic Kota Doria. The silk casts a subtle, luminous glow, while the cotton adds enduring strength, transforming this saree into a piece of heritage, wrapped in poetry, to carry with you through time.
Saree Body: At the heart of Alekhya lies its breathtaking canvas, a continuous celebration of craftsmanship, adorned all over with silver and gold zari motifs highlighted by playful pops of color. One vertical column showcases the sacred "Pichwai art", a narrative in thread, where "lotus blooms in delicate pinks and greens entwine with golden vines". Amidst this, "silver zari cows appear, their horns, eyes, and ornaments glowing in a rich maroon", each detail woven with soul and precision.
Adjacent to this is a stunning half-repeat column featuring "Four-Balloon Spoked Asterisk" motifs and "heart-shaped clover flowers nestled in Quatrefoil patterns", woven in a divine blend of gold and silver zari.
Saree Border: Encasing this artistry are elegant "silver zari kaddi borders", inspired by the iconic Paithani tradition. Embellished with "muniya (parrot) motifs in vibrant parrot green and red", and finished with a reddish-orange selvedge, the borders offer a regal frame that gracefully enhancing your silhouette.
Saree Pallu: The pallu is a celestial crescendo, a luminous expanse of silver zari intricately patterned with "diamond motifs" enclosed by delicate "floral bud anklets in gold zari". Every element is woven in harmony, echoing the serenity of sacred hymns.
Saree Blouse: Accompanying Alekhya is an unstitched blouse in a deep reddish orange tone, featuring elegant "floral bud motifs in a silver zari half repeat layout". "Four vertical lines in silver zari" lend architectural rhythm to the design, all framed with matching kaddi borders as seen on the saree, effortlessly tying the look together.

COTTON CARE
• It is advisable to only dry-clean our Sarees. Use mild detergent to hand wash Cotton Sarees.
WASH, DRY & IRON PURE SILK THE RIGHT WAY
• For first three washes, dry cleaning is advisable for silk fabrics.
• If ever silk is washed in water, ensure it is washed in soft lukewarm water using a good neutral soap only.
• Squeeze lightly by hand to remove water after washing.
• Always dry the silk in shade only on a flat surface instead of hanging.
• Use low to medium heat while ironing.
• Always iron silk on the reverse side.
• Never spray water to dampen silk before ironing as it may cause water spots on the fabric.
• Do not wash the stains with water, instead give it for dry cleaning.
STORE PURE SILKS THE RIGHT WAY
• Store your Silk in a clean and dry environment using Cotton bags; avoid plastic covers.
• Avoid direct contact with wood.
• Protect silk from insects, dust, excessive moisture and light.
• Periodically (every 3-6 months) expose silks to fresh air and store after reversing the folds.
• Wrap Silk Sarees in cotton cloth or brown paper to avoid blackening of zari.
• Instead of Naphthalene balls, keep silica gel sachets in storage racks.
