Arakku Red Handwoven Pure Silk Kancheepuram Saree with Zari Kattam Body and Grand Varisaipet Border

This arakku red Kancheepuram is woven in the Zari Kattam tradition — fine gold zari threads intersecting across the pure silk body to form a luminous gold grid — handwoven by artisan weaver families in Kanchipuram, Tamil Nadu. Silk Mark certified.

The arakku red body carries the Zari Kattam grid with Mayil Chakram butta — the peacock-wheel medallion in gold zari — placed at measured intervals within the check squares. The grand Varisaipet border arrives in extraordinary density and rhythm — alternating layers of silk thread and gold zari in orange, brown, and gold creating a layered visual weight that frames the saree with full ceremonial authority. A saree suited for muhurtham ceremonies, bridal wear, and the most significant auspicious celebrations.

An arakku red Zari Kattam Kancheepuram pairs best with an arakku red or deep gold silk blouse to mirror the ceremonial depth. An ivory or antique gold raw silk blouse also works beautifully for a lighter bridal look. Explore our full range of handwoven Zari Kattam Kanchipuram silk sarees.
