Purple Handwoven Pure Silk Kanchipuram Saree with Gold Zari Kattam Peacock Motifs

A Lakshmi Puja hosted at home on Diwali evening, diyas lit around the threshold, calls for a saree that glows under warm indoor light, and this rich purple silk with its fine zari kattam grid was made for that moment. Fine zari threads intersect across the silk body to form a luminous grid, catching every flicker of diya light. It took 7 days on the loom to complete — you can read our story to see how a saree like this comes together, thread by thread, in Kunnam village.

The purple body is woven through with a fine checked zari grid, scattered with gold peacock motifs and circular medallions that glow richly against the deep base. Explore more of our Zari Kattam sarees if this weave style speaks to you.

The border deepens into a dense gold zari band with detailed woven figures, finished with a fine coral-orange edge that lifts the purple and gold pairing. The pallu continues the same gold density for a cohesive, festive drape. Browse our full Kanchipuram Pure Silks collection for coordinating pieces.

This saree pairs beautifully with antique gold or polki jewellery, and suits Diwali celebrations, pujas at home, or festive family gatherings.
