Banarasi tissue sarees shimmer like beaten metal — ultra-fine zari woven through the ground itself, so the whole saree glows before a single motif appears.

Tissue is Banaras weaving at its most light-struck: fine yarns interlaced with flat zari create a surface that shifts colour as you move — gold one moment, silver-rose the next. Despite the drama these sarees are surprisingly light to wear, pleating crisply into sculptural drapes. Historically tissue was reserved for royal and bridal wardrobes; today it is the go-to for women who want reception-level shine without embroidery weight.

Our Banarasi tissue edit is being restocked, so the live range on this page changes often. Check back, or browse the wider tissue range below for sarees available now. Prices shown on each product are regular list prices; seasonal offers apply at checkout.

Styling molten fabric

Treat it like eveningwear: a sleek tonal or velvet blouse, diamonds or polki, hair pulled back. Skip layers of heavy jewellery — the fabric is the ornament.

Occasions

Receptions, cocktail nights, engagement evenings and award functions; lighter tissue shades also make radiant day-wedding guest sarees.
