Radiant Peacock Blue Handwoven Pure Silk Kanjivaram Varisaipet Saree with Gold Zari Buttas and Elephant Border
Radiant Peacock Blue Handwoven Pure Silk Kanjivaram Varisaipet Saree with Gold Zari Buttas and Elephant Border
Radiant Peacock Blue gives this handwoven pure silk Kanjivaram saree remarkable depth, moving between saturated turquoise, teal and blue-green as the silk changes through light. Small warm-gold zari buttas are placed at measured intervals across the open body, leaving generous areas of colour visible and allowing the natural sheen of the silk to remain central to the design.
❖ Every saree is made to order. 42 days pass between dyeing the silk and the finished weave, roughly 16 of it spent on the loom.

This is a confirmed Varisaipet composition in pure mulberry silk, with a traditional multi-band border structure built from repeated woven lines. A saree of this type typically represents approximately 14 to 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 Varisaipet border is constructed through several distinct woven registers rather than one continuous zari field: fine geometric bands lead into smaller floral and ornamental sections before opening into a prominent row of repeated elephants in warm gold zari, followed by a broader metallic section and additional narrow finishing registers that give the edge a strong architectural rhythm. The elephant register remains clearly visible against the Peacock Blue silk, while the pallu carries this richness further with a broad diamond-lattice gold field, long decorative registers and richly woven traditional sections that become considerably denser than the body. Explore the Varisaipet collection, or browse the wider pure silk Kanchipuram collection for more of this character.
Styling: Pair it with Peacock Blue or deep teal for a tonal blouse, or use a richer green to draw out the greener undertone in the silk. Traditional or antique gold jewellery works beautifully with the warm zari, and the saree suits weddings, temple functions, classical performances and festive family gatherings.
Blouse Piece Included: 0.8m running blouse piece. See our Blouse Stitching Guide.
