Zari Kattam builds a disciplined grid into the field of silk. In paaku brown, these minute checks catch the light like a fine lattice of gold, before opening into the broader green-and-gold ornamental language of the pallu. Handwoven by artisan weaver families in Kanchipuram district, Tamil Nadu, for Idam Living. A saree of this complexity represents approximately 16 or more active days on the loom, with exact weaving time varying according to the individual saree. Read our story.
Border: Clear parrot-green silk border with broad woven gold ornamental panels and repeating floral-geometric motifs.
Pallu: A richly woven kili pachai green and gold-toned pallu with circular medallions, diagonal geometric fields and large figurative ornamental registers, finished with green silk tassels.
Styling: A plain leaf-green blouse draws the kili pachai pallu into the outfit, while a paaku-brown blouse makes the gold checks feel especially warm. Wear with small antique-gold jewellery or a single long chain, and allow the elaborately worked green pallu to fall without heavy additional embellishment.
