Banaras, or Varanasi, holy city of temples, where, by the taking of
a dip in the Ganges river, Hindus believe one gets closer to salvation, one
also gets to see a grand offering – the Banarasi saree. Notwithstanding a
flurry of traditional silks across the country, the Banarasi Saree has always held out as a unique fabric
of traditional excellence.
In an awesome display of grandeur, Banarasi Silk sarees have always been exclusive and
captivating. Finely woven, with rich brocades in gold, silver zari, including
fine designs and engravings, the relatively heavy and opulent affair is part of
every bride’s trousseau and a must-have finery fabric for weddings and
exclusive occasions in many Indian homes. The speciality of the Banarasi sari lies in its use of zari or rich gold
and silver coloured thread work on motifs and brocades.
The influence of Mughal designs is evident from the awesome
floral and leafy motifs known as ‘kalga’ and ‘bel’ and outer border designs of
upright leaves known as ‘Jhallar’. In addition the heavy gold work on the
brocades, the compact weaving of the base fabric, the small detailing, metallic
visual effects, the mesh pattern and the intricate embroidery work are all
contributive towards making the Banarasi silk sari, a rich traditional offering
and a national pride. The brocade is woven on a draw loom through a special
technique involving a supplementary weft. This ornamental addition through the
revolutionary special arrangement known as ‘jacquard’ has expanded the horizons
of pattern making on fabrics.
Four to five centuries have
passed and this tradition of fine weaving has neither dimmed nor lost lustre.
In fact the Banarasi
Silk Sareehas continued to remain as exceptional and finely
sought as before. Over the years additions and introductions within the weave
have never seemed out of place. Despite being woven in traditional style, the
fusion elements have seamlessly merged to become a part of its rich and
dazzling heritage.
