The "Narmada Ruby" is an exquisite Hand Block Printed Maheshwari Silk Saree, reflecting timeless elegance and traditional craftsmanship. Originating from the town of Maheshwar in Madhya Pradesh, the Maheshwari saree is known for its unique silk-cotton blend fabric, which provides a luxurious drape, lightness, and comfort.

- Material: This is a fine Maheshwari Silk, incorporating a blend of both cotton and silk in the weave. The fabric is lightweight and breathable, suitable for various occasions.
- Print Name: The intricate designs are created using the traditional Hand Block Printing technique, likely a Bagru print or Sanganeri style. This art form, practiced by skilled artisans in Rajasthan, uses hand-carved wooden blocks to stamp patterns onto the fabric.
- Design: The main body of the saree features delicate buti (small motifs), while the pallu (decorative end) and border display more elaborate traditional patterns, including paisley and geometric designs. It includes a matching or contrasting unstitched blouse piece.
