Cream Handwoven Pure Silk Kanjivaram Saree with Maroon Varisaipet Border and Paisley Butta

Daytime engagement ceremonies and reception luncheons across the diaspora call for a saree that photographs beautifully in natural light without competing with the decor. This saree is woven in the Varisaipet style — a traditional multi-band border structure with repeated woven lines. Each saree takes 12 days on the loom and cannot be replicated by machine. Woven by our family's artisan weaver families in Kunnam village near Kanchipuram, Tamil Nadu — read our story.

The body is a soft cream pure mulberry silk, scattered with paisley-shaped maanga buttas woven in gold zari — a classic, versatile motif that reads as elegant rather than heavy. Discover more from our Varisaipet Kanchipuram collection.

The border and pallu are set in a rich maroon, built from the Varisaipet's repeated multi-band lines and filled with gold zari peacocks and rosette medallions, from our pure silk Kanchipuram collection.

Pair with a maroon or deep gold blouse, and refined gold jewellery — a delicate necklace, jhumkas, and bangles — for an engagement ceremony, reception luncheon, or a temple festival gathering.
