About this Saree
About the Golden Heritage Saree
Banarasi Sarees are cherished for their royal beauty and timeless craftsmanship, and the Golden Heritage saree captures that tradition perfectly. Made from luxurious Tissue Silk woven with gold and silver zari threads, this saree shines with a rich, elegant glow. Enhanced with fine handwork by skilled artisans of Varanasi, it is designed for life’s most special occasions and crafted to be treasured and passed down through generations.
The body of this saree carries a dense floral jaal across the antique gold Tissue Silk ground — rich, close-set, and worked with the patience that only hand craftsmanship allows. Running along both sides is a wide gold zari border, bold and beautifully structured. The pallu is the soul of this saree — a grand landscape of handwork florals, a large central medallion, and layered zari borders that make every step in this saree a moment worth remembering. This is not just a saree. This is golden heritage, carried forward.

Golden Heritage — Banarasi Tissue Handwork Saree — About This Weave
The Banarasi Organza Saree represents one of the lightest and most ethereal forms of Banarasi weaving. Organza — a sheer, tightly woven fabric — takes on a new dimension when worked with traditional Banarasi gold zari techniques on a pit loom. The result is a saree that is simultaneously delicate and opulent.
The Aqua Mist colourway is achieved through natural yarn dyeing before weaving — meaning the colour is embedded into the silk threads themselves, not printed or dyed on the surface. This gives the saree its characteristic depth and sheen, and ensures the colour retains its vibrancy through careful washing and storage.
At Ekaasam, every Organza Banarasi Saree is sourced directly from weaver families in Varanasi, cutting out middlemen and ensuring fair wages for artisans. When you purchase from Ekaasam, you directly support the preservation of a 500-year-old weaving tradition.
