The Fascinating story of a Banarasi Saree

The Fascinating story of a Banarasi Saree

From draping the silhouettes of royalty, to being a reigning force in the modern world, the Banarasi silk saree has come a long way. This exquisite form of saree is one of the most sought-after in the country, known for its grandeur and magnificence. Most women love to adorn this beauty for any occasion because of its elegance and sophistication. 

 

The history of this grand legacy can be traced back to the mentions in the Mahabharata and the Buddhist scriptures. But it is the Mughal empire that is largely to thank for, the introduction of banarasi saree in the country. The exceptional craftmanship required to weave this silk was bought in by the Mughals, who made significant efforts to elevate the art of weaving and designing. This led to the birth of many weavers and traders who took to the silk industry. As the silk flourished, so did the city and its riches.
