Banarasi silk fabric is renowned for its exquisite beauty and luxurious feel. Banarasi silk is crafted from high-quality silk threads, known for their lustrous appearance and smooth texture. The silk used is typically of premium quality, giving the fabric its characteristic sheen and softness. Zari, or metallic thread, is extensively used in Banarasi silk to add opulence and grandeur to the fabric. Gold and silver zari are intricately woven into the fabric to create stunning patterns and borders. The zari work is often done using techniques like 'kadwa' (cutwork) and 'badla' (embossed effect), adding depth and texture to the designs.
Banarasi silk fabric is highly versatile and is used to create a variety of traditional Indian garments such as sarees, lehengas, salwar kameez, and dupattas. It is also popular for crafting bridal attire and formal wear due to its regal appearance and timeless appeal.
