Olive Green Handwoven Pure Silk Kanjivaram Butta Saree with Gandaberunda, Mayil and Plum Zari Border

Olive Green Handwoven Pure Silk Kanjivaram Butta Saree with Gandaberunda, Mayil and Plum Zari Border

Earthy olive silk carries the small, repeated bird motifs of this Kanjivaram, while the deep plum-brown border introduces a striking procession of gold peacocks. The contrast is traditional, graphic and rich in woven detail.

❖ This saree reflects 20 days on the loom and generations of weaving heritage from Kanchipuram, Tamil Nadu — certified pure silk, handwoven by artisan families whose work sustains their village.

Woven in the Butta tradition, the olive-green silk body is covered in small gold zari Gandaberunda and mayil motifs. Their compact, alternating forms create a regular pattern without obscuring the green ground. Handwoven by artisan weaver families in Kanchipuram district, Tamil Nadu, for Idam Living. A saree of this complexity represents approximately 20 or more active days on the loom, with exact weaving time varying according to the individual saree. Read our story.

Border: A deep plum-brown contrast border is layered with close-set gold zari lines and a broad ornamental band. An array of peacocks appears along the main register, surrounded by floral scrollwork and small geometric framing bands. The substantial colour field beneath the ornamental work gives the border its strong silhouette.

Pallu: The deep plum-brown pallu carries a series of long gold zari ornamental columns and fine vertical bands, with a richly woven lower register featuring larger peacock and floral forms. Its broad woven field offers a deliberate contrast to the smaller buttas on the body.

Styling: A blouse in the deep plum-brown of the border balances the green body; antique gold is another natural choice. Traditional gold jhumkas and a neatly arranged bun give the detailed peacock border room to be seen. Suited to festive occasions, ceremonies, cultural gatherings and special occasions.

Frequently bought together

Which motifs appear on the olive-green body?
The body carries small gold zari Gandaberunda and mayil, or peacock, buttas in a regular all-over arrangement, creating texture without covering the green silk completely.
What is distinctive about the deep plum border?
The broad border includes a repeated array of gold zari peacocks, accompanied by ornamental floral detailing and narrow geometric bands. The dark ground makes the bird motifs especially visible.
Does the pallu repeat the same small buttas?
No. The pallu has a different, more elaborate arrangement of long gold zari panels and fine vertical bands, with a substantial peacock-and-floral ornamental section.
What is the difference between the body and border colour?
The body is an earthy olive green, while the border and pallu are a deeper plum-brown. Gold zari connects the two colours through the bird motifs and the layered border work.
Which blouse would suit the peacock border?
A plain deep plum-brown blouse will frame the border, while antique gold adds a ceremonial contrast. Idam Living can stitch a custom blouse to your preferred neckline and sleeve length.
