Peacock Green Vairaoosi Stripes Lightweight Pure Silk Kanchipuram Saree with Arakku Peacock Border
Like the green of a rain-washed temple garden, this peacock-green silk gathers fine blue-green lines into a quiet shimmer. An arakku-red border brings the splendour of golden mayil motifs, while the contrast pallu unfolds with grand ornamental zari.

A classic Lightweight Kanchipuram composition defines this Kanchipuram saree, woven in pure mulberry silk, with a luminous thulir-pachai-to-peacock green silk field, crossed by exceptionally fine blue-green horizontal silk-thread lines that lend a rippling, almost moiré-like rhythm. The parallel lines are visibly woven; the exact named stripe construction is not independently verified. The photographs do not establish a particular warp-weft ply count, korvai interlock, zari composition or other specialist loom construction. Handwoven for Idam Living by artisan weaver families in Kanchipuram district, Tamil Nadu. A saree of this type represents approximately 21 active days on the loom, with exact weaving time varying according to the individual saree. Read our story.
Border: A deep arakku-red contrast border, edged with a narrow triangular temple-inspired line and a broad antique-gold zari band. Repeating peacock (mayil) figures stand among floral creepers and compact geometric framing, creating a richly ornamental lower border.
Pallu: The arakku-red contrast end carries large ornamental gold zari motifs, paisley/maanga-like in silhouette with densely worked floral interior detail, alongside narrower gold zari bands and delicate lengthwise stripes. Explore the Lightweight Kanchipuram collection, or browse the wider pure silk Kanchipuram collection for more of this character.
Styling: Style with an arakku-red silk blouse and antique-gold earrings. A neat pleated pallu shows the intricate motifs, while an open pallu brings out the contrast of green and red.
