Figures are for this saree at this price. They move between sarees because yarn prices move; they do not move between the day you look and the day you buy.
Resist-printed on both faces, which is what separates Ajrakh from a single-side print. Turn the cloth over: the pattern should register on the reverse almost as sharply as on the front.
Hand wash separately in cold water for the first three washes — natural indigo will release some colour and that is expected, not a fault. Dry in shade.
Madder red temple geometry on a black mul cotton ground, resist-printed on both faces so the reverse is as finished as the front.
