Forest Green Handwoven Pure Silk Kanchipuram Saree with Mayil Chakram Butta and Korvai Vanasringaram Border

For a temple gathering in Chicago, this Kancheepuram silk saree will carry a deep, richly ceremonial presence. This handwoven pure silk saree in deep forest green arrives as a saree of lush colour and classical motif work — a verdant green body adorned with two-form butta in gold zari, anchored by a bold magenta korvai border of dense vanasringaram grandeur.

The body is woven in a deep, saturated forest green with the natural lustre of pure mulberry silk. Set across this vivid ground, two distinct butta forms appear: round kamalam motifs and mayil chakram peacock forms, both in pure gold zari, alternating across the silk with measured spacing. Each butta is rendered with the ornamental precision that defines classical Kanchipuram handloom weaving.

The vibrant magenta border is constructed in the korvai tradition — woven separately and interlocked with the forest green body on the loom, creating a bold jewel-toned colour contrast. The border carries large vanasringaram motifs — peacock forms of extraordinary scale and detail — in dense gold zari, creating a border of vivid ceremonial richness. The pallu continues in the same magenta with richly woven gold zari vanasringaram work, completing the saree with heirloom grandeur.
