बनारस की गद्दी

The Gaddi of Banaras

80+ years of Banaras.3 generations of trust.A legacy that continues.

गद्दीThe white sheet where every saree is opened, one at a time.

What began as a small family gaddi in Banaras has travelled through generations.

Today, the third generation continues the journey — carrying forward the values, relationships and love for Banarasi craftsmanship that built Jawahar Sarees.

More than a saree.A relationship.

We will never call a saree pure silk if it is not. That is the whole business.

The Art of Banaras

Every weave has its own character. Seven crafts, each with its own loom, hand and story.

  • Katan is woven from twisted mulberry silk threads, giving a smooth, dense cloth with a soft lustre. It is the base of the classic Banarasi saree — strong enough to carry heavy zari, graceful enough to drape for a lifetime.

  • Kora saree from Jawahar Sarees

    Kora is an organza-like silk, woven fine and left crisp. It holds its shape beautifully and lets zari motifs float on an almost transparent ground — light to wear, striking to see.

  • In Rangkat, the weaver joins different coloured threads across the width of the loom, so blocks of colour meet in the body of the saree itself. Every piece is a small study in colour, and no two are quite alike.

  • Raw Silk saree from Jawahar Sarees

    Raw silk keeps the natural slubs of the yarn, giving the cloth a gentle, uneven texture and a rich, matte depth. It falls with weight and ages with character.

  • Tissue saree from Jawahar Sarees

    Tissue weaves metallic zari through the silk, so the whole saree shimmers rather than just its border. Luminous and delicate, it is the saree for evenings and celebrations.

  • Moonga silk carries a warm natural sheen that deepens with every wear. Woven in Banaras with traditional motifs, it brings together an easy drape and quiet richness.

  • Zardozi saree from Jawahar Sarees

    Zardozi is hand embroidery in metallic thread, worked slowly over days. Raised, textured and unmistakably regal, it is the work of the bridal trousseau.
