Katan is a plain-woven fabric with pure silk threads. It consists of two strings twisted together and is mostly used for the warping of light fabrics. In Katan silk, a term used locally in Varanasi, yarns are prepared by wrapping different silk threads making them very strong and durable. The origin of the Katan silk saree can be traced back to Persia, though it is now weaved in Banaras. The women of the royal family during the Mughal Empire were the ones who wore luxurious clothes made of Katan silk.

Maintenance and Care
- Silk is an expensive animal product; it is obtained naturally and therefore requires careful handling and additional maintenance effort on the part of the user.
- It is highly recommended to dry them in professional and experienced laundries.
- Keep the saree in butter paper, or you can also wrap it in a muslin cloth
- Unfold your silk sarees and change the folding preferably every month
- Ensure minimal friction between the cloth and the embroidery when you fold embroidered outfits.
- Do not use perfume on zari sarees, as it tends to fade/dulls the polish
