It comes in plain colors, stripes, and checks with zari and thread borders. The zari border is usually referred to as the “Nizam Zari Border”.

It is similar to the Kota saree, which has an airy and fluffy feel to it and makes the saree very light to wear. Mangalgiri sarees are famous for their guaranteed color, which stays strong for long time. Currently Mangalagiri weavers have started weaving sarees in pure silk as well as in silk cotton.
