Neerja: Zero Zari 9 to 9 Pure Kanjeevaram Silk
By Late Veeraraghavan Ji's Sons
Saree Story
Look closely and you will find small silver flowers scattered across me, each one catching light differently depending on where you stand. That is Neerja for you, quiet until someone actually looks. I carry zero zari, woven entirely in silk thread, so I sit light through a nine hour day without ever weighing on the shoulder. My blue holds through every kind of light, morning fluorescent or evening candle, without turning flat the way some silks do. My border works its motifs in ivory and gold thread rather than metal, so the richness comes from craft, not shine. By the time evening arrives I am still exactly as I started, ready for whatever the room asks of me next.
Handloom Perfection
Handloom sarees are made by human hands, not machines. Which means every piece carries the natural variations of the loom and the weaver, proof that someone, somewhere, made this just for you.
Description
A pure silk handwoven Kanjeevaram with zero zari, woven entirely in silk thread so it carries the drape and body of a classic Kanchipuram without the weight of metallic work. Blue body scattered with small silver and gold buttis, ivory and gold contrast border. This is the 9 to 9 saree, light enough for a full working day and rich enough to carry you through whatever comes after.

Care Instructions
Silk rewards patience. Dry clean for the first wash. After that, cold water and a gentle hand. Never wring it, never rush it. Dry in the shade — silk and sunlight are not friends. Iron on the reverse, low heat, while it is still slightly damp.
