Banarsi handloom kora Silk code-BMSAPST101907
Kora silk, also known as **Organza silk**, is a type of lightweight, sheer fabric that has a slightly stiff texture. It is traditionally woven from pure silk threads, giving it a natural shine and crisp finish. Here are some of its main features:
- **Texture**: Kora silk is known for its transparent, crisp, and slightly stiff texture. This makes it ideal for garments that require a structured look, such as sarees, lehengas, and dupattas.
- **Sheer and Lightweight**: Unlike heavier silks, Kora silk is sheer and very lightweight, which makes it easy to drape. The fabric has an airy, ethereal quality, which adds a touch of elegance to the outfit.
- **Banarasi Kora Silk**: When woven in Banaras (Varanasi), Kora silk sarees are often embellished with intricate zari (gold or silver threads) patterns, floral motifs, and brocade work. These sarees are very popular for their delicate designs and are often worn during festive occasions and weddings.
- **Durability**: Although it is lightweight, Kora silk is quite strong and durable. However, it requires careful handling, especially while washing and storing, to maintain its texture and shine.
Kora silk sarees and fabrics are cherished for their grace and timeless appeal, blending tradition with a contemporary touch.
