Ready the weft shuttles

Preparing the Bana

Warp and weft threads are wound onto looms and shuttles (bana), customized per design requirements.

Choosing golden or silver threads

Zari Selection

Weavers select from sona, roopa, or antique zari based on saree colour palette and desired metallic richness.

Small-size proof weaving

Design Trial

A 2–3 inch sample is woven to preview design, correct mistakes, and finalize weave before full production.
