The Kanchi Kattam body is a study in precision and abundance: bright checks of yellow, green, teal, orange, red, purple and pink, each one clear enough to stand on its own. Where their threads cross, nuanced secondary shades lend the silk the movement of a painted bazaar street after rain. Handwoven by artisan weaver families in Kanchipuram district, Tamil Nadu, for Idam Living. A saree of this complexity represents approximately 32 or more active days on the loom, with exact weaving time varying according to the individual saree. Read our story.

Border: Deep aubergine-purple holds a generous gold-woven border. Floral roundels, neat rows of tiny blossoms and closely worked lattice-like geometry build a rich surface, while a narrow pointed gold edging traces the join with the checked field.

Pallu: In the pallu, the colour grows dusky and the gold more expansive. Long woven bands, interlocking textures and curling ornamental foliage create a warm metallic glow against the dark purple silk.

Styling: Let the checks do the talking with a solid aubergine blouse, antique-gold studs and a simple twisted bun. A turmeric-yellow blouse gives it an exuberant festive character. Carry the pallu open so the floral gold work balances the many colours in the body.
