Orchid Purple Handwoven Pure Silk Kanjipuram Saree with Zari Buttas and Elephant Motif Zari Border

Surprising a friend with a saree she didn't ask for but will love starts with a saree this beautiful. This soft orchid purple pure Kanchipuram silk saree is woven using finer mulberry silk yarn, giving it a fluid, comfortable drape. Each saree takes 7 days on the loom and cannot be replicated by machine. This saree carries the legacy of the weaver families of Kunnam village in Kanchipuram district — read our story.

An all-over miniature zari lattice runs across the soft orchid purple body, punctuated by elegant circular gold zari buttas, set in fine pure mulberry silk for a fluid drape and lasting durability. It's a distinctive addition to our pure silk Kanchipuram collection for those who want comfort without compromising on richness.

The luxurious gold zari border is richly detailed with majestic elephant motifs and intricate geometric weaving, celebrating traditional Kanchipuram craftsmanship. The pallu continues this gold zari treatment with the same elephant motif detailing, befitting a Kanchipuram ceremonial silk chosen to surprise someone special.

This saree suits weddings, festive celebrations, cultural gatherings, and special occasions — a lovely surprise gift for a friend. Pair it with a self-colour orchid purple silk blouse, or a gold blouse to echo the border. Complete the look with gold jhumkas and delicate bangles.
