Banarasi Fabrics - Heritage Yardage

Banarasi fabrics bring the full magnificence of Varanasi's 500-year-old silk weaving tradition to your fingertips — available by the metre so you can create exactly the garment you envision, in exactly the colour and style you desire. Woven on traditional pit looms by master weavers using pure silk and real zari, Banarasi fabric carries the full vocabulary of Varanasi's brocade artistry: the intricate floral jaal, the shimmering meenakari colour work, the bold geometric butis, and the characteristic contrast borders that have made Banarasi weaving the most celebrated silk tradition in India. Whether you are a designer creating a bespoke bridal lehenga, a tailor crafting a custom suit, or a bride who wants a saree in a specific colour that doesn't exist ready-made — Banarasi fabric by the metre gives you the freedom to create something truly unique.
