The body carries Meenakari Kamalam Butta — circular lotus motifs woven with fine gold zari outlines and enamel-like colour insets — scattered across the lavender ground at even intervals. The border uses the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/idamliving.com\/collections\/rettapet-kanchipuram-silk-sarees\" style=\"color:#C4622D;\"\u003eRettapet twin parallel\u003c\/a\u003e line structure, but here the border colour is a full deep navy, creating one of the most striking contrasts in the Tamil silk colour vocabulary.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe body of this Kanjipuram saree is woven in soft lavender-lilac mulberry silk, a colour that sits between mauve and pale violet. Across this ground, circular Kamalam Butta in antique gold zari with a blue inset — the Meenakari butta characteristic — are scattered at generous intervals. Each circular motif has a distinct centre detail that gives it a jewel-like quality. The lavender body is luminous in natural light, with the gold butta creating warmth against the cool purple ground.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe deep navy Rettapet border carries twin parallel woven lines flanking a grand peacock and floral scroll in antique gold zari — Mayil Butta and Floral Jaal at full scale, filling the border width with zari figural work. The navy-lavender pairing is beloved in contemporary Tamil bridal circles precisely because it is striking but not aggressive. For a baby shower, a graduation reception, a pre-wedding celebration, or a corporate Diwali event, this Kanjipuram carries exactly the right ceremony.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e❖ Handwoven pure mulberry silk\u003cbr\u003e❖ Butta weave — Meenakari Kamalam Butta scattered across lavender body\u003cbr\u003e❖ Lavender body with deep navy Rettapet border carrying Mayil Butta antique gold zari\u003cbr\u003e❖ Silk Mark certified\u003cbr\u003e❖ Woven by artisan weaver families we work with directly\u003cbr\u003e❖ Ships from New Jersey across the USA\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is Meenakari Butta?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMeenakari Kamalam Butta refers to circular lotus motifs with fine gold zari outlines and enamel-like colour insets, giving each motif a jewel-like, multi-tone quality distinct from plain gold zari work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy is lavender and navy considered a contemporary pairing?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis soft lavender body with a deep navy Rettapet border is a striking but understated colour combination favoured in modern Tamil bridal and event styling for occasions that call for elegance without bridal-red intensity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat events suit this saree best?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIts refined palette makes it well suited to baby showers, graduation receptions, pre-wedding celebrations, and corporate Diwali events.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBrowse our \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/idamliving.com\/collections\/rettapet-kanchipuram-silk-sarees\" style=\"color:#C4622D;\"\u003eRettapet Kanchipuram collection\u003c\/a\u003e or \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/idamliving.com\/collections\/by-butta\" style=\"color:#C4622D;\"\u003ecollection by Butta motif\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Idam Living","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52722959155476,"sku":"IDAM-LAVENDER-BUTTA-KB-001","price":329.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0837\/7355\/4964\/files\/Kanjipuram-Lavender-Butta-Meenakari-Kamalam-Navy-Rettapet-Border-02.jpg?v=1782778151","url":"https:\/\/idamliving.com\/products\/lavender-and-navy-handwoven-pure-silk-kanjipuram-saree-with-meenakari-kamalam-butta-and-rettapet-border","provider":"Idamliving","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
