Deep Raspberry Maroon Handwoven Pure Silk Kanjivaram Varisaipet Saree with Antique Gold Zari Motifs and Rich Woven Pallu
Deep Raspberry Maroon Handwoven Pure Silk Kanjivaram Varisaipet Saree with Antique Gold Zari Motifs and Rich Woven Pallu
Deep Raspberry Maroon gives this handwoven pure silk Kanjivaram saree a saturated jewel-toned presence. Fine antique-gold zari lines cross the body in a subtle checked texture, while small individual zari motifs appear at measured intervals across the silk. The colour shifts between deep raspberry, maroon and magenta as the light changes, giving the body remarkable depth.

This is a confirmed Varisaipet composition in pure mulberry silk, with a border built through several successive woven registers rather than one continuous zari field. A saree of this type typically represents approximately 14 to 18 active days on the loom, although individual weaving time varies. Woven for Idam Living by skilled artisan families in the Kanchipuram district of Tamil Nadu. Read our story.
Body, Border and Pallu: The Deep Raspberry Maroon body carries fine intersecting zari lines in small structured checks, with spaced antique-gold zari motifs across a restrained open field. The Varisaipet border is built through a succession of woven gold registers, with repeated narrow zari bands, fine wave-like ornamental lines, geometric framing and broader traditional motif panels creating a layered rhythm along the edge. The pallu becomes considerably denser, with an expansive antique-gold zari field, fine diamond lattice, multiple vertical ornamental registers and traditional motif panels, giving the transition from the checked raspberry body into the dense gold pallu one of the saree's strongest visual moments. Explore the Varisaipet collection, or browse the wider pure silk Kanchipuram collection for more of this character.
Styling: Pair it with Deep Raspberry Maroon for a tonal blouse, antique gold for a more ceremonial finish, or deep green for a classic contrast. Traditional gold jewellery and temple jewellery work naturally with the palette, making this saree especially suited to weddings, temple functions and festive gatherings.
Blouse Piece Included: 0.8m running blouse piece. See our Blouse Stitching Guide.
