Paithani (Marathi: पैठणी) is a variety
of sari, named after the Paithan town in
Aurangabad Maharashtra state where they
are woven by hand.
Made from very fine silk, it is
considered as one of the richest saris
in Maharashtra.
Paithani is characterised by borders of
an oblique square design, and a pallu
with a peacock design.
Plain as well as spotted designs are
available. Among other varieties, single
colored and kaleidoscope-colored designs
are also popular.
The kaleidoscopic effect is achieved by
using one color for warp and another for
weft.
