Aubergine Antique Gold Tissue Handwoven Pure Silk Kanchipuram Butta Saree with Annapakshi Zari Border

Deep aubergine and antique gold meet in a striking tissue composition, shifting from saturated jewel tone to soft metallic light. Coral red, peacock blue and fresh green appear only as fine woven accents, giving the saree the layered colour language of an old Kanchipuram piece without disturbing its stately restraint.

Woven as a Butta Kanchipuram tissue saree, the body balances a luminous antique-gold tissue field with traditional Annapakshi motifs worked in gold zari and interwoven silk-thread accents. The contrast between the tissue sheen and the deep aubergine silk makes the motif placement feel especially sculptural. Handwoven by artisan weaver families in Kanchipuram district, Tamil Nadu, for Idam Living. A saree of this complexity represents approximately 14 or more active days on the loom, with exact weaving time varying according to the individual saree. Read our story.

Border: The border is the statement frame: broad gold zari registers carry traditional bird imagery, while slim coral-red, peacock-blue and fresh-green silk-thread lines sharpen the transition from aubergine to gold.

Pallu: The pallu returns to the deep aubergine ground with richly worked zari and the same multicolour woven accents, creating a dramatic finish when worn loose over the shoulder.

Styling: Let the tissue surface carry the look. A deep aubergine or muted antique-gold blouse, temple-inspired earrings, one strong bangle stack and a low bun with jasmine would keep the styling ceremonial but not heavy. The pallu is strong enough to be worn open rather than tightly pleated.
