My mom had a chanderi saree.
The one I remember was dusty white and blue with a thin gold line on the border.
The other one was a green saree with broad swathes of velvety ribbon like fabric in between..
The ribbon like border was cream or white with black patterns on it.
This was a very unique saree.
I liked both these sarees a lot.
Chanderi sarees are very thin and delicate and are transparent.
They are woven in the town called Chanderi in Madhya pradesh. They have a shimmer to them. 
See how sheer the fabric is. There is another fabric that is similar to the chanderi fabric and that fabric is organza. I like organza sarees too. Shall blog about them soon.
