The figured sarees of the Eastern Deccan, called jamdani, are coveted the world over for the finesse of their texture. Having traditionally been the choice of fabric for royalty, the white-on-white jamdanis like this one are the most desirable among women today. Zoom in on the pristine field and take in the pale gold booties that line the border as well. The thick earthy red border gathers in an exquisite gold-brocade panel at the endpiece, and together with the white base dye constitutes the signature white-saree-with-red-border of Bengali fashion.
