Peacock Blue Handwoven Pure Silk Kanchi Pattu Rettapet Saree with Rani Pink Korvai Border, Mayil and Chakram Buttas

Peacock Blue Handwoven Pure Silk Kanchi Pattu Rettapet Saree with Rani Pink Korvai Border, Mayil and Chakram Buttas

Peacock Blue gives this handwoven pure silk Kanchi Pattu saree a jewel-toned body that moves subtly between blue and teal as the silk catches the light. Across the open field, Mayil and Chakram buttas alternate in warm gold zari, creating a measured rhythm without crowding the silk. The circular Chakram forms provide a graphic counterpoint to the more figurative Mayil motifs, allowing each design to remain clearly visible.

❖ This saree took 43 days — dyeing, threading, and roughly 18 on the loom — to complete.

This is a confirmed Rettapet composition in pure mulberry silk, finished here with a contrasting Rani Pink border of Korvai construction. A saree of this type typically represents approximately 16 to 20 active days on the loom, although individual weaving time varies. Woven for Idam Living by skilled artisan families in the Kanchipuram district of Tamil Nadu. Read our story.

Body, Border and Pallu: The confirmed Kanchipuram type is Rettapet, finished here with a striking Rani Pink Korvai border. The shift from Peacock Blue into saturated pink is crisp and deliberate, while warm gold zari develops through repeated ornamental registers, fine horizontal lines and circular woven bands. A narrow leaf-like zari edging defines the meeting point between body and border and gives the contrast an especially precise finish. The pallu moves fully into Rani Pink and becomes considerably richer than the body. An extensive gold zari diamond lattice fills the central field, surrounded by several finely worked geometric and ornamental registers. Explore the Rettapet collection, or browse the wider pure silk Kanchipuram collection for more of this character.

Styling: Style it with Rani Pink when you want to emphasize the Korvai border and pallu, or choose Peacock Blue for a more continuous tonal treatment. Traditional gold jewellery works naturally with the warm zari and the saturated jewel colours. Keep the hair in a polished low bun or a long braid for weddings, temple celebrations, Ganesh Chaturthi, Navratri, Dussehra, Diwali and formal cultural gatherings.

Blouse Piece Included: 0.8m running blouse piece. See our Blouse Stitching Guide.

What makes this Peacock Blue saree a Rettapet?
Rettapet is the confirmed Kanchipuram type for this saree. Its border treatment creates a strongly structured edge, while the saree is additionally finished with a contrasting Rani Pink Korvai border.
Does this Rettapet saree also have a Korvai border?
Yes. The Kanchipuram type remains Rettapet, while the contrasting Rani Pink border uses Korvai construction. The sharp transition from Peacock Blue into saturated pink is an important part of the saree's visual character.
Which buttas are woven across the Peacock Blue body?
The body alternates Mayil and Chakram zari buttas. The Mayil motifs provide the figurative element, while the circular Chakram motifs create a contrasting geometric rhythm across the open blue silk.
How does the Rani Pink pallu differ from the body?
The body remains comparatively open, with individual Mayil and Chakram buttas spaced across Peacock Blue silk. The Rani Pink pallu is considerably denser, developing into an extensive geometric gold zari lattice surrounded by multiple ornamental registers.
Which blouse works with this Peacock Blue and Rani Pink saree?
Rani Pink creates the strongest connection to the Korvai border and pallu, while Peacock Blue gives a quieter tonal continuation from the body. Traditional gold jewellery works particularly well with both choices.
