Deep Chocolate Brown Handwoven Pure Silk Kanjeevaram Saree with Rettapet Raspberry Pink Selvedge

A thoughtful return gift for a family function — silk instead of the usual, and this handwoven Pure Kanjeevaram silk saree in a deep chocolate brown with a rich raspberry pink selvedge, woven in the traditional Rettapet style, fits perfectly. Rettapet: twin parallel border lines create a balanced layered edge. Each saree takes an estimated 9 days on the loom and cannot be replicated by machine (days on loom estimated — please confirm). Handwoven with generations of skill by families in Kunnam village in Kanchipuram district, Tamil Nadu — read our story.

Crafted from pure mulberry silk, the body offers a rich lustre and graceful drape in deep chocolate brown, edged with a raspberry pink selvedge. The distinctive Rettapet twin parallel borders create a refined structure, one of the most admired heritage weaves of Kanchipuram.

The broad antique gold zari border is adorned with majestic yali motifs, floral vines, and temple-inspired elements, creating a striking contrast against the deep brown silk — motifs long associated with strength and abundance in South Indian weaving tradition. The matching pallu carries the same elaborate zari artistry.

Ideal for weddings, religious ceremonies, festive gatherings, and heirloom collections. Pair the deep chocolate brown body with an ivory or raspberry pink silk blouse, and complete the look with antique gold temple jewellery — a statement necklace and matching jhumkas.
