Deep Aubergine Handwoven Pure Silk Kancheepuram Rettapet Saree with Red Gold Zari Border

The Rettapet treatment introduces multiple metallic registers through the red border, creating a formal layered edge enriched with heritage ornament. Read our story.

Border & Pallu: The pallu becomes significantly richer, combining a dense geometric zari centre with strongly defined motif panels and repeated traditional figurative forms.

Styling: Deep Aubergine creates a tonal blouse direction, while Red amplifies the border. Antique gold or deep green can add further ceremonial contrast.

Slight color variations due to screen and lighting; daylight photos/videos available on request.

Blouse Piece Included: 0.8m running blouse piece. See our Blouse Stitching Guide.

✦ Fall & Picot Finishing included complimentary with every order.
