1. What makes Mysore Silk different from other silk sarees?
Mysore Silk is known for its simplicity and elegance, along with the use of real gold and silver in the jari. It is soft, smooth, and lightweight, so it drapes easily and feels comfortable even after long hours.

The beauty of the saree lies in its uniform texture, natural lustre, and the gentle shine of the gold jari. This smooth finish comes from the way the fabric is woven, giving it a clean, even surface.

2. How can I check if a Mysore Silk saree is pure?
Start with the feel. It should be soft and fluid, never stiff.

Then look for the Silk Mark certification. This is the simplest way to ensure the saree is made of pure silk. Real silk also has a softer glow, not an overly shiny or synthetic look.

For technical confirmation, silk can be tested at the Central Silk Board, and jari can be tested at the National Test House, Chennai.

3. Does Mysore Silk always come with a Silk Mark certification?
Most genuine sarees do. The Silk Mark from the Silk Mark Organisation of India confirms that the saree is made of pure silk.

4. Why is Mysore Silk expensive… and is it worth buying?
It comes down to materials and making. Pure silk, real silver and gold in the jari, and skilled weaving rooted in Karnataka’s textile heritage.

This is not a saree for one occasion. It is something you wear over the years, often becoming part of your collection. Many women find themselves reaching for it again and again.

5. Can I wear Mysore Silk for daily use or only for occasions?
It works for both. The silk is light and breathable, which adds to its comfort over long hours.

It can be worn for smaller gatherings and day events, while still holding its place at weddings and festive occasions.

6. What are the most popular colours in Mysore Silk sarees?
Classic colours like red, rani pink, mustard, bottle green, electric blue, royal purple and black are always popular.

They are usually seen in single tones or contrast combinations, often with two or three colours across the saree. The design stays simple, which keeps it timeless.

7. How is Mysore Silk different from Kanchipuram Silk and Banarasi Silk?
Kanchipuram and Banarasi sarees are heavier and more detailed in their design.

Mysore Silk is lighter, more fluid, and easier to wear for long hours. It is also known for a high standard of gold and silver content in the jari.

8. How do I care for and store a Mysore Silk saree properly?
Dry clean when needed. Store it in a cotton cloth, not plastic.

Keep it in a dark, dry place, away from sunlight and moisture. Refold it occasionally so the folds do not weaken over time.

9. Is Mysore Silk a good gift for weddings or special occasions?
Yes, it is a thoughtful and reliable gift.

It suits most people and is not just about luxury, it carries material value and can be worn over time. It also represents Karnataka’s textile heritage.

Clarity on Naming & Brand

10. Are Latha Puttanna sarees the same as Mysore Silk?
Our sarees are made using certified pure silk, supported by the Silk Mark from the Silk Mark Organisation of India. We use certified jari made with approximately 650 grams of silver and 6.5 grams of gold over a silk base per kilogram of jari yarn.

The jari is also tested at the National Test House.

While we do not label our sarees as “Mysore Silk,” we maintain a high standard of material and craftsmanship so that the saree feels refined and lasts over time.

The name “Mysore Silk” is legally used only by Karnataka Silk Industries Corporation.

11. Did Latha Puttanna design for Karnataka Silk Industries Corporation?
In 2013, Latha Puttanna was invited to design a special collection for KSIC titled Yards of Heritage.

A selection of these designs continues to be retailed by KSIC. Over time, some customers have informally referred to them as “LP sarees.”

This reference comes from customer usage and is not an official label. Latha Puttanna operates independently and is not affiliated with KSIC beyond this specific collection.
