Fine silk sarees woven with pure zari, a Mysore tradition dating to the Wadiyar dynasty.
Understand
Mysore silk weaving traces to the Wadiyar dynasty, which established the Mysore Silk Factory in the early 20th century to produce sarees with pure silk and real zari (gold-wrapped thread).
Weavers work pure mulberry silk on power looms with zari borders, a state-regulated craft that still carries a geographical-indication tag for authenticity.
