Pale Gold and Steel Blue Handwoven Pure Silk Kancheepuram Saree with Silk Thread Teardrop Butta and Rettapet Yaanai Border

This pale gold and steel blue Kancheepuram is woven in the Rettapet tradition — twin parallel border lines creating a balanced layered edge — with steel blue silk thread teardrop butta across the pale gold body and a Yaanai procession in gold zari across the steel blue border.

For a Panguni Uthiram festival procession, this Kancheepuram carries the authority that needs no explanation. The body is pale gold silk with silk thread butta in steel blue — teardrop-form motifs woven in muted steel blue against the pale gold ground, two colours creating a palette of extraordinary restraint. The Rettapet weave frames the body with twin parallel border lines. The steel blue border carries a Yaanai procession in gold zari — the elephant marching in a continuous band at full border scale. The pallu continues the steel blue with the Yaanai and Rettapet banding at full width.
