Blouse piece: Yes, the saree comes up with a Blouse piece of 0.8 meters
The Paithani sari has its origins in antiquity, hailing from the royal dynasties of the medieval town of Paithan near Aurangabad. Named after the town, the sari is believed to have been originally made with the finest silk threads from pure zari that was spun locally. This sari signifies years of superfluity and the finesse of Indian handloom, and every piece is characterised with the luxurious and liberal use of gold, as well as floral and bird-inspired motifs. The modern iterations of the sari from Paithan and Yeol are crafted from homegrown silk threads from Bangalore, while the zari is sourced from Surat. To create a genuine Paithani sari, around 500 grams of silk threads and another 250 grams of zari threads are utilised for a regular six-yard piece, while the nine-yard silk threads iterations use more raw material and can weigh up to 900 grams.
