Magenta Handwoven Pure Silk Kanjivaram Saree with Ettukol Zari Border

For the Pongal harvest gathering, when families come together over the first rice of the season, a saree should feel warm and grounded rather than ornate. This Kanjivaram saree is woven in Ettukol: eight-shuttle weave creates layered interlacements with distinctive depth and texture, giving the magenta body a rich, almost dimensional sheen. Each saree involves the eight-shuttle Ettukol construction and takes 15 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 unembellished magenta pure mulberry silk, letting the Ettukol layered weave structure itself do the work — a quietly textured field with no applied motifs. Browse our full Ettukol Kanchipuram collection.

The border is an Ettukol zari border, rising in a dramatic golden flame-edged pattern against the magenta ground, continuing into the pallu for a bold, graphic finish. See more pure silk Kanchipuram pieces.

Pair with a gold or magenta self-colour blouse, temple jewellery in antique gold, for Pongal family gatherings, kolam mornings, or any harvest-season celebration.
