Handloom Banarasi Kora Tissue Ektara Tilfi Saree

Fabric - Pure Kora Tissue Silk 

Kora fabric is a type of plain weave fabric made from pure silk or cotton yarn. The term "Kora" means "unbleached" or "raw" in Hindi, and the fabric gets its name from its natural color, which is usually off-white or cream-colored.

Kora fabric is known for its unique texture and sheer quality. It has a slightly rough texture, which gives it a natural and rustic look. The fabric is also lightweight and breathable, making it ideal for summer clothing and accessories.

The sheer quality of Kora fabric is due to the thinness of the silk or cotton yarn used to make it. The fabric is semi-transparent, allowing light to pass through it, which creates a beautiful and delicate effect.
