Deep Maroon Handwoven Pure Silk Kanchipuram Saree with Varisaipet Mayil Butta and Rust Orange Border

Deep maroon is the Kanchipuram colour of full ceremony — a bridal and wedding-weight silk that announces the occasion before the wearer speaks. Carried here in a Varisaipet weave, in a plain deep maroon pure mulberry silk body. Each saree takes 8–12 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 deep maroon body carries Mayil Butta in gold zari — peacock motifs woven fully in gold at measured intervals, the warm rust orange and deep maroon reading as tonal complements across body and border. Browse all pure silk Kanchipuram sarees.

The rust orange Varisaipet border carries red silk thread motifs woven alongside gold zari — a two-material border technique creating a textured surface of layered visual richness. The pallu continues the same rust orange Varisaipet structure.

Styling: For Tamil and Telugu bridal ceremonies, weddings, Seemantham, and Navarathri's most formal occasions. A self-colour maroon silk blouse keeps the body grounded; a rust orange blouse picks up the border. Pair with heavy gold jewellery — broad gold necklace, large jhumkas, gold bangles stacked generously.
