Kathan Purple Silk Saree

This saree is a Katan Silk Saree, specifically in a rich purple shade. It features intricate traditional animal and bird motifs that are characteristic of high-quality Indian handloom artistry. Made from  Katan Silk, which is created by twisting multiple pure silk filaments together to create a sturdy, durable fabric with a smooth, lustrous finish. The intricate pattern showcases various animals such as elephants, lions, and birds (peacocks) woven into a floral jaal (grid) or jungle scene. This specific "hunting scene" style is known as Shikargah.
Weaving Technique: It likely uses the Kadhua (Kadwa) weave, where each motif is hand-woven individually, resulting in a more robust and elevated pattern.  which adds a regal shimmer to the deep blue base.
