16 Days on Loom
Pure Mulberry Silk
Handwoven in Kanchipuram
The body is covered in a precise Zari Kattam, a fine intersecting grid of zari filaments that catches light as the silk moves. Handwoven by artisan weaver families in Kanchipuram district, Tamil Nadu, for Idam Living. A saree of this complexity represents approximately 16 active days on the loom, with exact weaving time varying according to the individual saree. Read our story.
Border A bold purple border carries a paired Ambari Yaanai procession, with two ceremonial elephants arranged symmetrically around an ornate central tree-like motif.
Pallu The grand pallu is densely woven with gold-toned zari in a diamond-lattice field, with paisley-inspired ornamental bands and geometric pettu framing. Rich tassels finish the pallu.
Styling Style with a deep-V plum or antique-gold Banarasi brocade blouse, elbow sleeves, temple jewellery and jasmine gajra.
