Hand‑Painted Pure Cotton Saree – Nritya‑Mukha (Kathakali Pacha Design)

Evoking the vibrant spirit of Kerala’s classical dance, this saree is a visual celebration. Against a serene ivory-gold canvas, each piece is hand-painted with the majestic face of the Kathakali Pacha (green warrior), adorned with lotus and floral motifs—a design inspired by Kerala mural art. 

Woven from featherlight Kerala cotton with kasavu-style zari borders, the saree merges traditional craft with festival-ready flair. The bold red pompom tassels on the pallu hem add a playful, tactile finish—ideal for the joyous rhythm of Onam festivities.
