Unlike any other silk in the world, Muga has a natural golden sheen that deepens and brightens with every wash — it is one of the very few textiles on earth that becomes more beautiful with age. The weave is dense, the drape is regal, and the lustre is unmistakably alive.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach saree is handwoven by master weavers whose families have practised this craft for generations.
