Olive Green Handwoven Pure Silk Kanchi Pattu Saree with Petite Mayil Chakram Butta and Varisaipet Border

Sixty years around the sun calls for a saree with its own quiet ceremony — this is the silk chosen for a shashti poorthi, when three generations gather and the matriarch of the family takes her seat at the center of the hall. Varisaipet describes a traditional multi-band border structure with repeated woven lines, built up in layered stripes of gold zari rather than a single wide panel. Each saree takes 8 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 olive green pure mulberry silk, scattered all over with petite mayil chakram butta — small peacock-wheel motifs in gold zari repeated in neat rows across the drape. Explore more Mayil Chakram Butta Kanchipuram silks.

The deep maroon-brown varisaipet border rises in repeated gold zari bands into a grand pallu where facing peacocks and dense floral vines are woven in high-relief gold zari — a pallu meant to be seen from across a banquet hall. See our full varisaipet Kanchipuram edit.

Pair with a maroon or deep brown silk blouse and antique gold jewellery — well suited to a milestone birthday, wedding reception, or Diwali gathering within the community.
