This is a confirmed Rettapet composition in pure mulberry silk, with a doubled-yarn construction that gives the woven surface a subtly ridged texture and added durability. A saree of this type typically represents approximately 18 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 body is distinguished by an all-over zari checks weave, with fine antique gold lines crossing rhythmically across the silk to create a precise grid, giving the pale green body subtle structure and a quiet shimmer. The broad Deep Purple border is the defining feature — expansive in scale, with finely woven antique gold zari registers along the edge adding definition and traditional richness. The pallu becomes considerably richer, with dense antique gold zari weaving forming a broad ornamental field framed by traditional geometric registers.

Styling: Pair the saree with a Deep Purple blouse to echo the dramatic broad border. Antique gold jewellery works beautifully with the zari checks, while emerald or ruby accents can add a richer festive note.
