Purple Handwoven Pure Silk Kancheepuram Saree with Petite Peacock green Korvai Border

For a family's first temple visit of the season, when the saree needs to feel devotional and considered, purple carries a natural quiet weight. This Kancheepuram saree is woven in Korvai (KV): body and border woven separately and structurally interlocked on the loom. Each saree involves two separate weaving processes — the Korvai construction requires body and border to be woven on separate looms before structural interlocking. 20 days on the loom. Woven by our family's artisan weaver families in Kunnam village near Kanchipuram, Tamil Nadu — read our story.

The body is woven in soft purple pure mulberry silk, scattered with small gold-and-pink zari floral buttas spaced evenly across the field. Browse our full Korvai Kanchipuram collection.

The border and pallu shift into a deep navy-purple ground carrying a petite peacock motif woven in gold zari, with a fine green stripe along the edge — a Korvai border interlocked structurally rather than printed or attached. See more pure silk Kanchipuram pieces.

Pair with a navy or gold blouse, temple jewellery in antique gold, for a temple visit, a Tirupati pilgrimage, or any devotional family occasion.
