Namastey! Let's get to know each other a bit here. This is a small brief below.
Varanasi has, since times immemorial, been hailed as a premier centre for some of the finest handicrafts. The most renowned craft of the city is Silk weaving. ?Banarasi Sarees? produced by local craftsman are among the most preferred, not only in India but across the world. These awe-inspiring sarees, which were earlier made in real gold and siver yarn for the royalty, are now woven using rich silk or georgette yarn, inter-woven with fine Zari (metallic) yarn. Many women still prefer Banarasi Sari as their Reception Saree. Numerous weavers, in and around the city of Banaras, are engaged in this ever-expanding industry. The silk used in the making of Indian Benarasi silk sarees is being sourced from the southern parts of the country, mainly Bangalore. Banarasi Sari offers such grace to a woman that can hardly be matched by any other dress, behind all this grace is a weaver, whose skill and genius goes into the making of such a splendid outfit. Usually, it takes around 15 days to one month to complete a Banarasi saree. Still, the time may vary depending upon the complexity of designs and patterns of the sari.
