Canary Yellow Handwoven Pure Silk Kanjeevaram Saree with Floral Butta Motifs and Gaja-Yali Border

Diwali celebration in Edison, New Jersey — the Little India of the East Coast calls for a saree that carries real weight — canary yellow silk, woven by hand, the kind that gets passed down. This handwoven pure silk Kanjeevaram saree is finished in the Traditional Butta style, with gold zari floral buttas scattered across the body. Each saree takes 6 days on the loom and cannot be replicated by machine. Woven by our family's artisan weaver families in Kunnam village near Kanchipuram, Tamil Nadu — read our story.

The body is crafted in pure mulberry silk, with the gold zari buttas spaced to let the richness of the canary yellow silk carry the piece. Explore more from our Kanchipuram Pure Silks collection.

The broad self yellow border is richly woven with Gaja-Yali motifs — elephants and peacocks worked into scrolling vines and geometric zari bands — flowing into a matching pallu. It's the kind of border that has carried ceremonial weight in Tamil weaving for generations.

A fitting choice for Diwali celebrations, weddings, temple visits, and festive family gatherings. Pair it with a matching yellow or antique gold blouse and temple jewellery in gold.
