Where the looms of Sholapur meet the soul of Maharashtra — draped in the regal depth of Royal Blue.
Origin & Heritage
The Narayanpeth saree is a proud legacy of the Sholapur district of Maharashtra, woven by skilled artisans who have carried this craft across generations. Known for its distinctive contrast border and signature zari buta work, the Narayanpeth weave is a symbol of Maharashtrian identity — worn at weddings, festivals, and every occasion that calls for grace with tradition.
Product Overview
This Royal Blue Narayanpeth saree is crafted in a Cotton-Acrylic blend that offers the comfort of cotton with the lustrous drape of acrylic. The rich Royal Blue body is beautifully offset by a contrast Meena pallu and the iconic Narayanpeth border — making it a statement piece that is both traditional and timelessly elegant.

From Artisan to Elegance
Each Narayanpeth saree is woven on traditional pit looms by artisans in and around Sholapur, where the craft has been practised for over a century.

The buta motifs across the body are woven with precision, giving the saree a festive richness that no printed fabric can replicate.
