Pure mulberry silk is the most prized and expensive. The grade and weight of the silk also play a role. Real zari (silver threads coated in gold) is the most expensive. The amount and intricacy of the zari work greatly impact the price. Imitation zari (made of other metals) is less costly. The complexity and artistry of the design, along with the use of traditional motifs (peacocks, parrots, flowers, etc.), influence the price. More intricate and unique designs command higher prices.
