My mother has one. It is almost 54 years old. The design and the intricacy of that saree have inspired me to keep creating this pattern year after year because some things deserve to be continued, not preserved. The honeycomb jaal is one of the timeless designs of Undivided Bengal's Jamdani tradition. Not a trend, not a revival, simply a pattern that has always been right and continues to be.
This saree is woven in 150/300c handspun cotton, dyed with indigo, with the full honeycomb jaal worked across the surface in the Jamdani technique. Extraordinarily fine, extraordinarily comfortable. The kind of saree you buy today and your daughter wears in forty years without it ever feeling old.
