Woven in the Butta tradition, Deep Arakku red silk, recalling the polished glow of traditional lac dye, is scattered with petite Mayil Chakram zari buttas and small gold circular medallions. Warm copper-russet reflections appear across the folds in the light. 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: A deep Arakku-red border arranged in layered antique-gold zari registers, with an especially prominent panel of large peacock-inspired figurative motifs, curling foliage, circular floral elements and slender geometric lines.

Pallu: A grand Arakku-red pallu carrying a long central ornamental zari panel, framed by narrow patterned lines and a densely decorated gold band at the edge.

Styling: Choose a matching Arakku blouse for classic Kanchipuram richness or a muted copper silk blouse to pick up the warmer glow. Keep jewellery old-gold and the shoulder drape clean so the figurative border reads clearly.
