Chanderi silk-cotton in magenta, scattered with small gold butis above a woven gold border.

Where it came from

Chanderi silk-cotton

Silk warp on a cotton weft, woven sheer enough to hold the light.

The transparency is the point. A Chanderi is thin enough to read a hand through and still carries a woven gold buti, which is why it is worn in heat when nothing else will do.
