Forest Green and Magenta Korvai Kanchipuram Silk Saree with Veldhari Body and Yaanai Border

This forest green and magenta Kanjivaram is woven in the Korvai tradition — body and border woven separately and structurally interlocked on the loom by two weavers working in tandem — with the Veldhari body weave creating a flowing, rhythmic surface of gold zari movement.

For a grand wedding reception in New Jersey, this Kanjivaram commands a striking and elegant presence. The body uses the Veldhari technique with wavy linear forms and small dot accents in gold zari. The magenta border and pallu carry Yaanai elephant motifs in gold zari.
