Arakku Red Handwoven Pure Silk Kanjivaram Rettapet Saree with Emerald Green Gold Zari Border
Arakku Red Handwoven Pure Silk Kanjivaram Rettapet Saree with Emerald Green Gold Zari Border
Burnished Arakku red is cooled by a deep emerald green border, a classic contrast that becomes richer under warm light. Gold zari appears in measured body buttas before building into the broader border and densely worked green pallu.
❖ This saree carries 18 days of loom work behind it, handwoven in Kanchipuram by artisan families continuing a generations-old craft.

Woven in the Rettapet tradition, the saree uses a strongly framed contrast border to give the Arakku body a clear edge. Alternating mayil and chakram zari buttas sit across the silk. Handwoven by artisan weaver families in Kanchipuram district, Tamil Nadu, for Idam Living. A saree of this complexity represents approximately 18 or more active days on the loom, with exact weaving time varying according to the individual saree. Read our story.
Border: Deep emerald green Rettapet border with broad gold zari bands, small floral medallion registers and crisp stacked lines.
Pallu: Deep emerald green pallu with a dense gold zari diamond lattice and vertically framed ornamental bands.
Styling: Style it with a deep green blouse for a seamless traditional look, or an Arakku blouse for stronger contrast. Kemp jewellery, antique gold and fresh jasmine all sit naturally with the red-green palette.
