Weaves by Advaya monogramWeaves by AdvayaWhere Every Thread Tells a Story

The Advaya Standard

Our Promise

Five commitments we make to every customer — before the purchase, during the purchase, and long after it arrives.

Government-Backed Authenticity

Silk Mark Certified

Every saree in our collection carries a Silk Mark — India's official certification of pure natural silk, issued by the Central Silk Board. The registration number of every tag is recorded and available to any buyer on request. No certification, no listing.

Verified against Central Silk Board registry
Tag number photographed and stored at sourcing
Available to customer on request

Zero Middlemen

Direct Weaver Sourcing

We purchase directly from the weaving families themselves — no brokers, no bulk distributors, no marketplaces. This means our provenance chain is short, traceable, and honest. It also means weavers receive a fair price for their work, not a fraction of it.

Sourced directly from weaving families
Weaver name recorded for heritage pieces
Fair price passed directly to the craftsperson

Our Personal Guarantee

Authenticity Guarantee

If any saree you purchase from us is found to be other than what we have described — in silk content, zari grade, or weaving technique — we will refund the full purchase price. This is not legal boilerplate. It is a personal promise from two founders who have built their reputation on it.

Full refund if authenticity is disproven
Independent testing accepted as evidence
Founders personally stand behind every piece

Reliable Shipping

We ship domestically and internationally. Every saree is wrapped in heritage tissue paper, placed in a protective sleeve, and dispatched with a care card. For complete peace of mind, you may opt for Transit Insurance at checkout — 100% financial protection against loss or damage in transit.

Optional Transit Insurance available at checkout
International shipping to 40+ countries

Honest & Fair Returns Policy

Returns for Manufacturing Defects

We stand behind the quality of every saree we ship. If you receive a saree with a verified manufacturing defect — fabric flaw, significant colour discrepancy, workmanship damage, or wrong product — we will process a full refund to your original payment method within 7–10 business days.

Returns accepted within 48 hours of delivery
Valid for manufacturing defects only
Refund to original payment — no store credit, no exchanges

Important: Unboxing video required: A continuous, unedited video from first sight of the sealed package is mandatory for all claims. No video = no claim, without exception.

How to Protect Your Purchase

Mandatory Unboxing Video

Before opening any delivery from us, record a continuous video starting from a 360° view of the sealed, unopened package — shipping label clearly visible. Keep filming without interruption through the full unboxing. This video is your proof of delivery condition and is required for any damage or defect claim.

Start recording before touching the package
Keep the shipping label visible throughout
Unbroken footage from sealed to fully opened

Important: Claims submitted without a valid unboxing video will be rejected regardless of the nature of the complaint. No exceptions.

Voices of Our Customers

500+ Customers Trust Us

I ordered a Kanchipuram for my daughter's wedding and it arrived exactly as described. The Silk Mark was verified, the colour was perfect, and Dr. Barghavi personally called to make sure everything was right.

Finally a seller I can trust. I have been burned by fake Kanchipurams before. The documentation here is thorough and the saree is genuinely beautiful. Will not buy from anywhere else.

Priya N

Chennai

I am in the US and was nervous about ordering such an expensive saree online. The communication was excellent, the packaging was extraordinary, and the saree arrived in perfect condition. Highly recommend.
