Woven in the Rettapet tradition, the strong contrast border gives the blue-violet body a precise frame. Alternating mayil and chakram zari buttas are placed across the 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: Vivid magenta Rettapet border with broad gold zari kamalam medallion bands and fine linear framing.
Pallu: Magenta pallu with malli moggu zari stripes, narrow ornamental lines, a dense gold lattice panel and leaf-edged detailing.
Styling: A magenta blouse makes the border feel continuous, while deep blue keeps the look more restrained. Antique gold, temple jewellery or kemp stones work especially well against the blue-magenta contrast.
