Deep Plum Handwoven Pure Silk Kancheepuram Saree with Gold Border

Makar Sankranti — sesame sweets and silk sarees at a community puja — calls for colours with quiet sophistication. This pure Kanchipuram silk saree is handwoven in deep plum with a magnificent gold zari border. The body is densely woven in the Zari Kattam technique — fine zari threads intersect across the silk body to form a luminous grid, with fine gold zari checks. Each saree takes 10 days on the loom and cannot be replicated by machine. From the loom of Kunnam village in Kanchipuram district, woven by the same families for generations — read our story.

The deep plum body carries fine gold zari checks and traditional motifs, woven in pure mulberry silk for a rich, evening-ready shimmer. Explore more from our pure silk Kanchipuram collection.

The richly woven gold zari border and pallu feature classic geometric zari artistry, a striking finish for evening wear.

An heirloom-worthy saree for weddings, receptions, and festive occasions such as Makar Sankranti. Style it with antique gold jewellery and the matching blouse, including a statement gold necklace.
