Tissue fabric has a quality that photographs well and wears even better. The slightly crushed, luminous surface catches light naturally and gives the saree a presence that does not depend on heavy embellishment. At Naachiyars, the Banaras Tissue collection sits within the Exclusives range and brings together 20 tissue silk sarees across several distinct construction styles, all suited for weddings, receptions, festive occasions and celebrations.
The Crushed Tissue series is the most characteristic of the collection. These sarees feature a deliberately crushed fabric surface that creates a soft, irregular shimmer across the body, with Dots Butta patterns woven in and golden zari borders framing the edge. Available in light brown, brown and grey, the crushed tissue effect gives these sarees a richness that reads as festive without requiring a heavily worked pallu or border.
The Banaras Silver Jari Butta sarees bring a more classical Banarasi quality to the tissue base. These feature silver jari buttas distributed across the crushed tissue body in light green and brown, combining the characteristic Banarasi butta technique with the shimmer of the tissue weave. The silver jari on the tissue surface creates a two-dimensional luminosity that is distinct from the golden tone of the standard crushed tissue range.
The Plain Art Silk Tissue sarees with Fancy Pallu represent the premium tier of the collection, available in light green, peach and light blue with copper fancy pallus. These sarees have a plain tissue body that concentrates all the visual weight in the pallu, which carries a rich decorative design that drapes prominently. The clean body and elaborate pallu combination is a classic formal approach that works well for weddings and significant family occasions.
The Golden Tissue range includes sarees with zari line bodies, coin buttas, bubbles designs and small jari borders, all in a deep golden tissue base that reads as the most festive option in the collection. A Kalamkari style Crush Tissue saree in light blue green and a range of digital printed tissue sarees including violet floral, blue crush leaf jaal, green paisley self border and gold digital rose prints round out the collection with more design-forward options.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. What gives Banarasi Tissue its shimmer?
The tissue weave incorporates metallic threads into the fabric structure, creating a naturally reflective surface across the entire body. Crushed tissue variants have a deliberately crimped surface that gives the shimmer a softer, more diffused quality.
2. What is the difference between Crushed Tissue and Plain Art Silk Tissue sarees?
Crushed Tissue has a textured, crinkled surface with a diffused shimmer suited for festive casual wear. Plain Art Silk Tissue has a smooth, even body with all visual detail concentrated in the fancy pallu, making it more formal in appearance.
3. What is a Silver Jari Butta saree?
Small metallic motifs woven using silver jari thread across the crushed tissue body. The silver tone gives a cooler, more contemporary festive look compared to the golden tissue variants.
4. Are these sarees suitable for weddings and receptions?
Yes, crushed tissue butta and fancy pallu variants suit wedding functions well. Digital print and Kalamkari style tissue sarees work better for receptions and evening events.
5. How should Banarasi Tissue sarees be cared for?
Dry cleaning is recommended to preserve the tissue weave and jari work. Store folded in a muslin cloth away from direct sunlight.
