What is Tissue Banarasi Saree?

Tissue Banarasi Sarees – A Soft Golden Sheen with Banarasi Richness

Tissue Banarasi sarees are celebrated for their dreamy, shimmering texture — a fabric that resembles woven gold. These sarees are crafted by interlacing fine silk threads with metallic zari, resulting in a luminous, lightweight, and slightly crisp drape that enhances your festive look.

At Silken Saga, our Tissue Banarasi sarees are tailored for women who desire the grandeur of Banarasi craftsmanship without the weight of traditional silks. They are ideal for long events, allowing you to shine while remaining comfortable and elegantly put-together.
