This 19th-century "Sari" is a striking example of textile artistry from an anonymous artist. The piece features a rich, red base fabric adorned with a detailed pattern in the woven silk. The border displays a unique design featuring a series of stylized leaves and floral motifs in shades of blue, green, and gold, reflecting the intricate craftsmanship of the time. This piece serves as a valuable insight into traditional Indian weaving techniques and the enduring beauty of handcrafted textiles.
