Pastel Mint Green Handwoven Pure Silk Kanjivaram Rettapet Saree with Ganga-Jamuna Borders
Pastel Mint Green Handwoven Pure Silk Kanjivaram Rettapet Saree with Ganga-Jamuna Borders
The tender colour of pale mint leaves runs across this luminous silk, interrupted by delicate neli-veldhari lines. Bottle green and arakku red frame its two sides in a Ganga-Jamuna border arrangement, while gold quietly builds toward a magnificent red pallu.
❖ Woven by hand in Kanchipuram over 18 days on the loom — a piece of a centuries-old weaving tradition, made with certified pure silk.

Woven in the Rettapet tradition, pastel-green body featuring slender, wavy neli-veldhari silk-thread lines, spaced as quiet parallel horizontal bands. It carries 2 g zari purity. Handwoven by artisan weaver families in Kanchipuram district, Tamil Nadu, for Idam Living. A saree of this complexity represents approximately 18 or more active days on the loom, with exact weaving time varying according to the individual saree. Read our story.
Border: Ganga-Jamuna two-colour border composition in bottle green and arakku red, with gold zari fishpet-style double registers and geometric motifs.
Pallu: Rich arakku-red pallu with broad shimmering gold lattice, repeated ornamented side panels and delicate floral/geometric bands.
Styling: Choose a bottle-green silk blouse with a restrained high neckline and elbow sleeves, or an arakku-red blouse with slender gold piping. Finish with uncut-stone earrings and a simple low bun to let the dual border remain the centre of attention.
Consider for November Deepavali gatherings, temple visits, winter wedding functions, Margazhi cultural programmes or January Pongal celebrations, allowing for the actual delivery schedule.
