Deep Bottle Green Handwoven Pure Silk Kanjeevaram Saree with Copper-Gold Ettukol Border
Deep Bottle Green Handwoven Pure Silk Kanjeevaram Saree with Copper-Gold Ettukol Border
For an evening ceremony, the first impression is almost sculptural: a deep blackened green field gives way to an immense copper-gold border, while a sharp line of Vadamalli magenta and gold Ettukol geometry marks the transition.
❖ Handwoven especially for Idam Living by artisan families in Kunnam village near Kanchipuram, this saree spent roughly 20 active days on the loom, followed by dyeing, threading and finishing.

Woven in the Ettukol tradition, the saree uses prominent multicolour geometric border work to create an architectural division between the quiet body and the expansive border. Here, alternating Vadamalli magenta and gold triangular forms articulate the edge without being reclassified as another border type. Handwoven by artisan weaver families in Kanchipuram district, Tamil Nadu, for Idam Living. A saree of this complexity represents approximately 30 or more active days on the loom, with exact weaving time varying according to the individual saree. Read our story.
Border: An exceptionally broad copper-gold border descends deep into the saree, its luminous plain field meeting the blackened green body through alternating Vadamalli magenta and gold Ettukol triangles. A narrow magenta outer edge gives the scale a precise finish.
Pallu: The pallu continues the luminous copper-gold field and is framed by Vadamalli magenta bands carrying fine parallel gold lines. The spare geometry keeps the effect expansive rather than densely ornamental.
Current Look: Rani Mukerji's recent dark-green zari Kanjivaram placed deep colour, gold luminosity and traditional flower styling back in focus. This Ettukol carries a related old-Kanchi intensity through blackened green, a monumental copper-gold border and magenta geometry, while remaining a distinct weave and design.
Styling: Choose a plain black-green blouse with a clean square neckline, antique-gold earrings and a low jasmine bun, then allow the copper-gold border to dominate the pleats. For a sharper contemporary version, use a Vadamalli magenta blouse, one sculptural cuff and a sleek centre-parted bun.
Occasions: Especially suited to Navratri and Dussehra celebrations, Deepavali evenings, Karthigai Deepam gatherings, temple programs, weddings, receptions and festive occasions.

What is Ettukol in this Kanchipuram saree?
What is Ettukol in this Kanchipuram saree?
Ettukol refers here to the prominent multicolour geometric border treatment. Alternating Vadamalli magenta and gold triangular forms create a precise transition between the blackened green body and the expansive copper-gold border. This Ettukol uses the approved default of roughly 30 active days on the loom.
How does the unusually broad copper-gold border appear once draped?
How does the unusually broad copper-gold border appear once draped?
The border occupies a substantial part of the lower drape, so the gathered pleats carry a large field of copper-gold rather than a narrow line. The blackened green body remains quieter above it, while the magenta-and-gold Ettukol triangles define the transition.
Why does the copper-gold field look different as the saree moves?
Why does the copper-gold field look different as the saree moves?
The highly reflective woven surface catches light across folds, so it can move from antique copper and bronze-brown to a brighter gold. The colour is not flat, and daylight photographs may read differently from warm indoor lighting.
Can Idam Living design a custom blouse around the Ettukol colours?
Can Idam Living design a custom blouse around the Ettukol colours?
Custom blouse stitching is available, and the design can draw from the blackened green, copper-gold and Vadamalli magenta palette. Share your measurements and neckline or sleeve preferences so the blouse can support the unusually broad border without making the overall look too busy.
Does Silk Mark certify the Ettukol design or the silk?
Does Silk Mark certify the Ettukol design or the silk?
