Pink Glass Tissue Saree with Handcrafted Pitta Work and Floral Motifs

Product Details

This is a beautiful saree made of pure glass tissue, giving it a delicate and sheer quality. The dominant color is a lovely shade of pink or lavender.

Here’s a detailed description of the saree, focusing on the hand pitta work:

• Fabric and Drape: The saree has a lightweight and translucent appearance, characteristic of “glass tissue” or sheer organza. It drapes elegantly, and its sheerness is particularly visible in the pallu, which is spread out.
• Color Palette: The main body of the saree is a soft pink or lavender hue. The hand pitta work and other embellishments are in a contrasting, shimmering metallic tone, likely gold or rose gold, which complements the base color beautifully.
• Hand Pitta Work: The defining feature is the intricate “pitta work,” which is a type of embroidery where metallic threads are beaten down to create a flat, embossed effect.
  • Motifs: The pitta work forms elaborate floral and vine patterns, visible across the pallu and along the borders. These designs include delicate leaves, flowers, and possibly small bird or butterfly motifs, especially noticeable on the flowing pallu. The motifs appear to be densely packed in some areas and more scattered in others, creating a balanced design.
  • Texture and Sheen: The metallic pitta work adds a rich texture and a subtle, flat sheen to the sheer fabric, making the designs stand out without being overly raised.
  • Placement: The pitta work is prominent on the long border of the saree, as well as on the pallu, where it creates a stunning cascade of design. There are also smaller, scattered motifs on the body of the saree itself, maintaining continuity.
• Border: The saree features a finely crafted border, likely with a combination of the pitta work and perhaps some additional delicate metallic lace or embroidery.
• Blouse: The accompanying blouse piece, visible on the mannequin, is a matching or coordinating light-colored fabric, possibly with subtle embellishments that tie in with the saree’s design. The neckline of the blouse features a delicate band of what appears to be matching work, potentially a thin lace or embroidered trim.
