decorative floral emblem What is a Maheshwari zari checks saree?

A Maheshwari zari checks saree features fine metallic lines woven into the fabric to form a checked pattern. Depending on the design, the checks may appear across the body, on the pallu, or alongside the border. These sarees combine the lightweight character of Maheshwari weaving with a subtle festive shine.
