"VIRASAT 265" Banarasi Pure Brocade Zari Shikargah Silk Saree

Product Overview: A Royal Narrative Woven in Silk

Wear a piece of history with this majestic Emerald Green Banarasi Pure Brocade Saree, featuring the legendary Shikargah (Royal Hunt) weave. Historically reserved for royalty, the Shikargah design is one of the most complex and celebrated traditions of Varanasi handloom.

This saree transforms six yards of silk into a living forest. The deep, lustrous Bottle Green fabric serves as a canvas for a dense, narrative-driven Gold Zari Brocade. Unlike standard floral patterns, this masterpiece depicts a lively jungle scene ("Vana"). If you look closely at the intricate Jaal, you will find majestic Tigers, leaping Deer, dancing Peacocks, and Elephants woven amidst flowing floral vines.

The Brocade technique ensures that the gold zari is raised and embossed, giving the animals a lifelike, three-dimensional texture. This is a saree for the bold woman who cherishes Indian heritage—a garment that tells a story of nature, power, and beauty.
