An orchid-pink body with closely handwoven Zari Kattam shimmer and precisely spaced zari peacock motifs. The Zari Kattam grid catches light as the silk moves, a characteristic play of lustre across the handloom surface. Handwoven by artisan weaver families in Kanchipuram district, Tamil Nadu, for Idam Living. A saree of this complexity represents approximately 18 active days on the loom, with exact weaving time varying according to the individual saree. Read our story.

Border A contrasting royal-blue Rettapet border carries successive gold paisley bands, with a broader ornamental band of traditional Kanchipuram motifs. Rettapet refers to the traditional paired-border arrangement.

Pallu A grand royal-blue pallu densely worked with gold geometric lattice, a procession of paisleys and arai maadam ornamental panels.

Styling Place the contrasting paisley border along softly puffed blouse sleeves for a vintage Kanchi silhouette. This is a styling suggestion, not a promise of pre-stitched blouse construction.
