Magenta Vintage Silk Sari Piece with Gold Border — 4.2 Metre Continuous Piece

A striking piece of Indian silk sari fabric in a vivid magenta/fuchsia pink, finished with a beautiful wide woven metallic-gold border.

The main body is a rich solid pink with a subtle woven texture that catches the light beautifully. Along one edge is a broad gold-toned border framed by fine pink lines, giving the fabric an elegant traditional Indian textile character without being overly ornate.

At approximately 1 metre wide and 4.2 metres long, this is a generous continuous piece with plenty of fabric for sewing, fashion and textile projects. It's approximately 265 grams in weight.
