Steel grey tussar silk with a dry, lightly textured hand and a soft matte sheen. Delicate aari florals in pastel yellow, lavender, and fresh green trace the borders, with small embroidered butis scattered across the body. The pallu is framed in broad embroidered panels, finished with fine tassels for a clean close.

Wear it for gallery-style evenings, festive lunches, and formal day events when you want polish without sparkle. It holds its shape, keeps pleats tidy, and looks composed from first drape to last hour.

This is a modern grey base with a quiet lift of color. The body stays restrained for repeat wear, while the border and pallu carry the occasion—easy to style, instantly finished.

Artisan

Created by the women of the Naie Kiran collective in Kashmir, where Sozni and Aari embroidery are practised as both livelihood and continuity. The collective focuses on sustaining skill, independence, and authorship for women artisans, ensuring the practice remains rooted, relevant, and responsibly carried forward.

Craft Lore

Aari embroidery is executed using a hooked needle that enables continuous, fluid stitching. The technique allows for intricate patterning while demanding steady hand control to preserve structure and balance.

Origin

Sozni / Aari from Kashmir, India.

Care & Longevity

Care is about attentiveness, not intervention.

We recommend allowing time between wears and avoiding unnecessary cleaning. When needed, gentle hand care or professional dry cleaning is preferable. Frequent washing, harsh detergents, or prolonged soaking can affect texture and finish over time.

Natural variations in tone or softness may emerge with wear. These changes are part of living with handwoven materials and reflect use rather than wear-out.

Thoughtful care allows what you choose to remain with you for years, not seasons.

Shipping & Returns

Each order is prepared with attention and care before it leaves us.

We ship from the United States, and most orders are dispatched within 2–3 business days of confirmation. Once shipped, you will receive tracking details to follow its progress. Delivery timelines may vary depending on location and carrier conditions.

Should you have any questions regarding dispatch or delivery, our team is available at info@divasutra.com

Important Information

Handwoven traditions involve human skill and judgement at every stage. As a result, subtle variations in weave, texture, colour, or alignment may be present. These variations are inherent to handloom practices and are considered a mark of authenticity rather than imperfection.

We make every effort to represent colours accurately; however, screen displays may vary. Minor differences should be expected and do not affect the integrity or quality of what you receive.
