Description :

4 lovely antique saris client purchased at an annual Camel Fair in India during the 1990s from a vendor specializing in vintage & antique saris; so definitely older vintage. Each measures between 4.5 yards and 5.5 yards long. Brown one appears to be cotton, while the 3 purple ones appear to be silk. Please note: these were purchased specifically to repurpose for pillows and dress sections - all  show wear/occasional discoloration from previous use; see last three photos for examples. They have been in storage for 30 years, but do not smell nor is the fabric in poor shape - just be aware they have some flaws.. A gentle wash would make them perfect for that summer skirt and since there is so much yardage on each, flaws/stains can easily be cut around.

Brown - measures 5.5 yards

Purple with green border & fringe - measures 4.5 yards

Lighter pink & purple  - measures just over 5 yards

Dark purple - measures 5 yards
