The Zari Kattam structure is built from fine zari lines crossing through the deep-maroon silk to form an ordered check field along the length of the saree. The geometry provides a restrained counterpoint to the much richer figurative weaving at the border. Handwoven by artisan weaver families in Kanchipuram district, Tamil Nadu, for Idam Living. A saree of this complexity represents approximately 16 or more active days on the loom, with exact weaving time varying according to the individual saree. Read our story.

Border: The broad pink border is exceptionally ornate, with handwoven peacock and elephant motifs arranged through large gold-zari panels and framed by smaller geometric and ornamental registers.

Pallu: The pallu continues the saree's richly woven traditional vocabulary, balancing broad metallic fields with repeated zari registers.

Styling: Keep the blouse within deep maroon for a tonal treatment, or use the pink of the border to emphasize the dramatic contrast.
