The piece in detail
What is woven into it
The body is golden-beige Muga, scattered with small two-tone buti: a golden-orange leaf beside an ivory bud. A slim border of ivory floral bands, set with small golden-orange diamonds, runs along both edges.
The pallu is dense ivory Eri work. Large paisleys, the kalka, filled with flowers and dotted with golden-orange, alternate with diagonal bands of diamond lattice, the heart of each diamond in golden-orange, and small rosettes fill the spaces between. Several stacked bands of stepped flowers and geometric work close the pallu, which ends in a soft, loose fringe.
Occasion & styling
Gold and ivory is the classic Assamese pairing: for a wedding, worn as the bride's mother, sister or a guest, for Bihu, prayers at the namghar, a puja, an anniversary or a formal cultural event. Wear it with a blouse of matching Muga or gold-beige, or with deep red or maroon for contrast.
In the photographs it is worn with a red and green bead necklace and a crescent pendant; a Junbiri, a Dugdugi or Gamkharu suit it as well. Let the pallu fall open and long to show the paisleys, or pleat it over the shoulder for a neater daytime drape.
The object
The ivory is Eri, a spun silk, and it stays matte where the Muga ground shines.

- Never machine-wash it or leave it to soak.
- Press it on the reverse at a low setting, with a cotton cloth between the iron and the motifs.
- Fold it in muslin or cotton, never plastic, away from damp and direct sun, and refold it along new lines every few months.
- Keep perfume and deodorant off the cloth, and give it no polish or sheen treatment.
