Frequently Asked Questions

Are these pure silk Banarasi sarees?

Yes. All sarees are crafted using 100% pure mulberry silk and carry Silk Mark certification from the Central Silk Board of India, verifying pure silk content and authentic handwoven production.

What is the Kadhwa weaving technique?

Kadhwa is the most labour-intensive Banarasi weaving method, where each motif is individually threaded using a separate bobbin for each colour and zari element. The reverse of a Kadhwa saree is as clean as the face — there are no cut threads or floats, which is the definitive test of authenticity.

What occasions are Banarasi pure silk sarees suitable for?

Banarasi pure silk sarees are ideal for weddings, bridal trousseaux, engagement ceremonies, and significant family celebrations. They are particularly popular for North and East Indian bridal wear and increasingly sought by South Asian diaspora brides in the USA.

Are these sarees fall and pico finished?

Yes. Every Banarasi saree at Idam Living is fall and pico finished before shipping and arrives ready to drape.

Do you ship Banarasi sarees across the USA?

Yes. All orders ship free from our New Jersey warehouse to all 50 US states. Custom blouse stitching is also available for $30.

Is each Banarasi saree a unique piece?

Yes. Each saree is a single handwoven piece sourced directly from the weaver. Once sold, it is not reproduced.
