Moss Green Shot Colour Handwoven Pure Silk Kancheepuram Rettapet Saree with Paisley Buttas

Moss Green Shot Colour Handwoven Pure Silk Kancheepuram Rettapet Saree with Paisley Buttas

A field of olive leaves after the rain, touched by an unexpected green-gold light. The shot-colour silk shifts between moss, softened sage and warmer bronze, while a cobalt-blue thread travels through the zari like a slim line of evening sky.

❖ Handwoven in Kanchipuram, Tamil Nadu — this saree spent 18 days on the loom, woven by artisan families who have practiced this craft for generations.

Woven in the Rettapet tradition, this saree frames its shot-colour body with a double-register border. Spaced maanga-inspired paisley zari buttas rest on the changing green silk. Handwoven by artisan weaver families in Kanchipuram district, Tamil Nadu, for Idam Living. A saree of this complexity represents approximately 18 or more active days on the loom, with exact weaving time varying according to the individual saree. Read our story.

Border: Rettapet twin-register bands in sage and green with cobalt-blue silk threads interwoven with gold zari, copper-rust linear details and traditional figurative and floral gold zari bands.

Pallu: Grand emerald-to-moss green ornamental pallu with dense gold zari floral and paisley-like scroll registers and repeated slender copper-rust lines. Explore the Rettapet collection, or browse the wider pure silk Kanchipuram collection for more of this character.

Styling: A solid forest-green or cobalt blouse will emphasise the two registers of the border. Wear with brushed-gold jewellery and an open pallu so the green, copper-rust and blue woven lines can be read separately.

Frequently bought together

What does Rettapet mean in this saree?
Rettapet describes a traditional double-register border. Here its bands combine green silk, copper-rust details, blue silk threads and gold zari.
What makes the border of this Moss Green Shot Silk saree distinctive?
Rettapet twin-register bands in sage and green with cobalt-blue silk threads interwoven with gold zari, copper-rust linear details and traditional figurative and floral gold zari bands. These are woven decorative elements, not printed motifs.
How does the pallu complement the body?
Grand emerald-to-moss green ornamental pallu with dense gold zari floral and paisley-like scroll registers and repeated slender copper-rust lines. The more concentrated decoration gives the shoulder drape a different emphasis from the body.
Can Idam Living help design a blouse for this saree?
Yes. The saree includes a 0.8 m running blouse piece, and Idam Living offers optional custom stitching. A blouse can draw inspiration from its border and zari without making the saree feel overly busy.
How should I care for this handwoven silk saree?
Dry clean only. Store folded in a soft muslin cover away from direct sunlight and avoid spraying fragrance onto the silk or zari.
