This vintage red silk jacket is crafted from an antique silk sari, traditionally worn at weddings. Each jacket is a wearable piece of heritage. Lovingly upcycled, these exquisite silks have been reimagined into contemporary jackets full of history and heart. No two are alike, each jacket is one-of-a-kind, and carries the grace of tradition and the joy of new beginnings.
The silk fabric is adorned with intricate embroidery using gold zari thread. This form of craftsmanship demands great skill and patience, and such garments are traditionally reserved for special occasions. The art of zari making has been passed down through generations, often from father to son, for centuries.
These celebration sarees are a heavier weight, giving this vintage red silk jacket a luxury drape and added warmth.
