About the Gulbahar collection

Gulbahar, meaning "spring of flowers", is Silk Ethnics' collection of hand embroidered Chanderi silk-cotton sarees. Each motif is embroidered by hand on a soft ivory Chanderi base, so the saree carries the charm of handwork while staying light and easy to drape.

How to style it

Festive and traditional: pair it with a red or maroon blouse, gold-toned temple jhumkas, a few bangles and a gajra.

Boho: wear an ivory or rust blouse with oxidised silver earrings, a macramé potli bag and kolhapuris for a relaxed festive day out.

Each piece is a work of art which uniquely displays the craftsperson's skill. The beauty of handcrafted fabric is that no two pieces look exactly alike, and minute flaws are very common. The imperfections can be anything from an uneven yarn to a slight variation in the embroidery. The beauty of an original handcrafted saree lies in its imperfections.

Pls note that there may be a mild colour variation in the saree due to colour reproduction in camera and screen.

Frequently asked questions

What is unique about Silk Ethnics' Gulbahar collection? Gulbahar pairs the airy Chanderi silk-cotton weave with hand embroidery, so each saree is both light and richly detailed.

It is festive without heavy zari, which makes it easy to wear from a morning pooja to an evening celebration.
