Mangalgiri is well known for its handloom fabrics that are famous for their tightly woven structure with fine stripes & checks & well-knit, dense zari / threadwork borders which give these saris a beautiful drape.  Managalgiri fabrics are woven in vibrant colours and this combined with the super fine weaving gives them a crisp finish. 

The other unique feature of these saris is a typical border that is known as the “Nizam Border”.  This border can be found only in Managalgiri saris.  Managalgiris are also now woven in Silk Cotton & Silk.
