On this deep plum Kancheepuram, it anchors the marigold border in a single, large gold zari butta of extraordinary detail, the feathers and form of the double-headed bird rendered with the precision that only handloom weaving allows. Woven in the Butta tradition with the Gandaberunda as the defining motif, this saree is a collector's piece as much as a celebration garment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe body is deep plum — the purple-maroon of dusk before the lamps are lit — and across it runs a fine Zari Kattam gold grid where fine zari threads intersect across the silk body to form a luminous grid, giving the body a structured depth that the deep colour amplifies rather than obscures. Small Kili buttas in gold zari are scattered across the field, each one a precise bird form placed with the weaver's characteristic restraint.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe marigold border is wide and ceremonially grounded — carrying the large Gandaberunda butta in gold zari as its central motif, flanked by Varisaipet bands that give the border its multi-layered structure. The pallu extends the marigold with the same Gandaberunda in a broader, more expansive arrangement.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA marigold or deep plum blouse echoes the body-border contrast directly. Antique gold jewellery with bird motifs — peacock chains, Gandaberunda pendants, and broad bangles — honours the weave's iconography. For temple occasions, Navarathri, or any celebration where the saree carries meaning beyond decoration.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e❖ Weave: Butta — Gandaberunda gold zari motif woven into border and pallu\u003cbr\u003e❖ Body: Deep plum Zari Kattam with scattered Kili gold zari buttas\u003cbr\u003e❖ Border: Marigold with large Gandaberunda gold zari butta and Varisaipet bands\u003cbr\u003e❖ Pallu: Marigold with Gandaberunda gold zari in broad arrangement\u003cbr\u003e❖ Silk Mark certified pure mulberry silk\u003cbr\u003e❖ Length: 6.3 metres\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Idam Living","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52696744493332,"sku":"IDAM-B-GB-VB-001","price":279.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0837\/7355\/4964\/files\/deep-plum-butta-kancheepuram-silk-saree-gandaberunda-marigold-idam-living-04-2.jpg?v=1782255864","url":"https:\/\/idamliving.com\/products\/deep-plum-and-marigold-handwoven-pure-silk-kancheepuram-saree-with-gandaberunda-butta-border","provider":"Idamliving","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
