Narayanpeth "The simple yet bold Saree" - Welcome Lord Ganesha in Style

In our tradition and culture it is imperative that for certain rituals you have to wear only silk. Silk in India is worn mostly on occasion and silk sarees for these occasions are heavily embroidered with zari. If keeping it simple is your theme this year while celebrating the arrival of Lord Ganesha then the Narayanpeth Saree is perfect for you. It is the perfect blend of festive yet not screaming for attention a choice perfect for the woman on the go.


The history of the Narayanpeth Saree is very interesting. It is believed that in 1630 AD, Maratha King Chatrapati Shivaji on his travels camped at the Narayanpeth region. When he moved ahead on his journey few of the weavers accompanying him stayed behind. Hence the birth of the Narayanpeth sarees with a heavy Maratha influence.


The sarees are a merger of two distinct colors with the pallu showcasing unique rudraksh patterns on Pallu.


                    Lovely purple with mango yellow border



Love the shocking candy pink with a purple temple border 

                    The very traditional orange with parrot green



This Narayanpeth is very close to my heart as it was the first saree gifted to my by my mother-in-law

Do share your looks with me as you welcome lord Ganesha in your homes this year. Write to me at sarindstyle@gmail.com
