What does self woven jacquard mean?
Jacquard is patterning woven into the fabric on the loom. Self woven means the pattern is worked in the same shade as the ground rather than a contrasting colour, so it shows as tonal texture that catches light at certain angles instead of standing out as bold colour.
What is crystal shine stone work?
Crystal shine stone refers to faceted stones fixed onto the fabric. The cut facets reflect light in several directions at once, so they read sharper and brighter than a flat sequin. On this saree they are used as highlights on the woven pattern rather than covering it.
Will the woven pattern show up in photographs?
Partly. Tonal self woven patterns rely on light hitting the fabric at an angle, so a flat straight-on photograph flattens them. In person, and in pictures taken with side lighting, the pattern reads much more clearly than a single catalogue image can suggest.
What is pure crepe satin in the blouse piece?
Crepe satin has two faces: a smooth reflective satin side and a matte, finely pebbled crepe side. A tailor can use either face outward depending on how much sheen you want in the blouse. You receive 0.80 mtr unstitched, cut to your measurements.
Does the stone and pearl work sit loosely on the fabric?
It sits proud of the surface by design, which is what lets it catch light from several angles. Stone and pearl elements are anchored individually, so the worked panels carry more thickness and weight than the plain ground and behave differently when the saree is folded.
