The Rettapet EditMayilpeeli

Peacock Blue Pure Kanchipuram Silk Rettapet Saree with Turmeric Yellow Yaanai Pettu Border

Peacock Blue Pure Kanchipuram Silk Rettapet Saree with Turmeric Yellow Yaanai Pettu Border

A deep peacock-blue pure Kanchipuram silk saree meets the brilliant yellow of freshly ground manjal, with glints of emerald green that shift like a peacock's neck in the light. The turmeric-yellow border carries the warmth of temple marigolds, set off by gold-toned zari, delicate arakku-rose accents and a narrow leaf-green selvedge.

❖ Woven on traditional handlooms by artisan families in Kanchipuram, Tamil Nadu, where generations of weaving knowledge shape every saree. Approximately 18 active days on the loom, followed by careful finishing.

In rettapet, twin parallel zari lines define the border, giving the saree edge a balanced, layered structure that complements the body without overwhelming it. Kamalam buttas ornament the blue silk body. Read our story.

Border Traditional rettapet lines bring a balanced, layered structure to the turmeric-yellow border, alongside Yaanai Pettu detailing, gold-toned zari, delicate arakku-rose accents and a narrow leaf-green selvedge.

Pallu The grand zari pallu, in saturated turmeric yellow and closely worked golden zari, features ornate elephant motifs arranged in sequence.

Styling Pick up the border with a turmeric-yellow silk blouse in a classic elbow sleeve, so the yellow frames the peacock-blue body. Antique-gold temple jhumkas and a slim kasu mala suit the elephant pallu; wear the pallu open across the shoulder and finish with a jasmine-wrapped braid.
