Peacock Blue Handwoven Pure Silk Kancheepuram Saree with Kathiripoo Purple Rettapet Border
Peacock Blue Handwoven Pure Silk Kancheepuram Saree with Kathiripoo Purple Rettapet Border
Peacock blue deepens toward teal in the body, then meets a luminous Kathiripoo-purple border in a colour pairing that feels jewel-toned and distinctly Kanchipuram. Warm zari runs through the double-kattam body and gathers more densely at the border and pallu.
❖ This piece took 18 days on the loom to weave in Kanchipuram, handwoven by artisan families whose generational skill keeps this heritage tradition alive.

Woven in the Rettapet tradition, this saree combines twin-register border detailing with a zari double kattam body. Mayil and kamalam buttas punctuate the grid, adding traditional motif rhythm without disturbing the strong geometry. 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: The Kathiripoo-purple Rettapet border is structured with arai maadam and warm gold zari, creating a clear frame against the peacock-blue body.
Pallu: The pallu shifts into a dense zari grid, allowing the Kathiripoo ground to show through between the gold geometry for a luminous, formal finish.
Styling: A plain Kathiripoo-purple blouse will make the border feel continuous, while a deep peacock-blue blouse keeps the look tonal. Pair with antique-gold jhumkas or a single temple necklace, and choose jasmine or a sleek bun. The blue-purple contrast is particularly strong under evening light.
Occasions: Well suited to Deepavali evenings, temple programs, receptions, classical music and dance events, Karthigai Deepam and winter wedding celebrations.
