The Magic of Morpankhi: Why Everyone Wants Peacock Blue?

In the world of Paithani, no colour commands as much attention as Morpankhi (Peacock Blue). A divine blend of deep blue and emerald green, this dual-tone shade changes its look depending on the light. It is often associated with Lord Krishna and signifies royalty, awakening, and beauty.

Our Morpankhi Paithani Varieties

At Paithanistore, we have curated a special range dedicated to this best-selling colour:

• Self-Zari Morpankhi: For a modern, subtle look, we offer sarees where the border is also in a shade of gold or blue, without a sharp contrast.

When to Wear a Morpankhi Saree?

According to Marathi traditions and fashion trends, this colour is ideal for:

• Evening Receptions: The dual-tone fabric shines brilliantly under stage lights.
• Dohale Jevan (Baby Shower): In Maharashtra, green and blue hues are considered auspicious for expectant mothers.
• Festivals: Perfect for Diwali Padwa, Gudi Padwa, and Lakshmi Pujan.

Styling Tips for Morpankhi Paithani

Since the saree colour is rich and heavy, keep the jewellery traditional. A Pearl (Moti) Choker or a long Kolhapuri Saaj looks best. Use fresh Mogra flowers in your hair to contrast with the dark blue hues.
