Gold Beige Handwoven Pure Silk KanchiPattu Saree with Silk Thread Paisley Butta and Rettapet Border

The degree is conferred, the tassel turned, and the family gathers afterward for photographs and a celebratory dinner — this is the saree for the mother marking her daughter's graduation. Rettapet describes twin parallel border lines that create a balanced, layered edge, distinct from a single-band border. Each saree takes 9 days on the loom and cannot be replicated by machine. Woven by our family's artisan weaver families in Kunnam village near Kanchipuram, Tamil Nadu — read our story.

The body is woven in gold beige pure mulberry silk, set all over with ornate silk thread paisley butta — mango-shaped motifs woven in contrasting maroon silk thread rather than zari, giving a soft, understated shimmer across the drape. Explore more pure silk Kanchipuram silks.

The deep rani pink rettapet border, built from twin parallel gold zari lines, rises into a grand pallu rich with gold zari floral detail — a striking contrast against the soft gold beige body. See our full pure silk Kanchipuram edit.

Pair with a deep pink or maroon silk blouse and gold jewellery — well suited to a graduation celebration, engagement, or festive family dinner.
