Maharani

Handwoven couture · Est. 1962

Banarasi brocades, Kanjeevaram temple silks and Rajputana zardozi — woven by hand for India's finest boutiques.

The house

Six decades, three looms, one belief — that a sari is not sewn but woven, thread by gold thread, by hands that learned from hands before them.
