The piece in detail
What is woven into it
The body is black, scattered with small red drop-shaped buti, and a slim red border runs along the edge.
The pallu begins with a row of red teardrop medallions, feathered at the edge and filled with curling scroll, then a narrow band of small pointed leaves. Below it the pallu is at its densest: larger scrollwork medallions in staggered rows, separated by chevron bands of red dots and linked by slender flowering vines.
Occasion & styling
Dramatic and spare, it suits festivals, evening weddings and receptions, formal dinners, concerts and cultural events. A plain black blouse keeps the ground unbroken, and a plain red one picks up the motifs; with either, it can be worn the day it arrives, before the blouse piece is stitched.
It needs very little jewellery: a slim gold chain and small earrings, or one bold piece in gold or oxidised silver. Drape the pallu open over the shoulder so the row of medallions runs down the front and the worked end shows in full.
The object
Krishnakoli means the dark, lovely one: a deep black ground, with a single red for every figure on it.

Care
- Dry clean only, and tell the cleaner it is Paat.
- 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, direct sun and pale silks, and refold it along new lines every few months.
- Keep perfume and deodorant off the cloth.
