Radiant red silk is ordered by fine vertical zari stripes before meeting a pale lavender Rettapet border. Rettapet uses traditional twin-register border detailing, giving the edge a clearly layered frame while the contrasting pallu introduces a much lighter field of silk and gold. Handwoven by artisan weaver families in Kanchipuram district, Tamil Nadu, for Idam Living. A saree of this complexity represents approximately 18 or more active days on the loom, with exact weaving time varying according to the individual saree. Read our story.
Border: Pale lavender silk carries rows of stacked gold zari work in the Rettapet double-register treatment, sharply contrasting the radiant red body.
Pallu: The pallu opens into pale lavender with a dense gold zari field and repeated woven border rows, reversing the strong red-led balance of the body.
Styling: Choose pale lavender for the blouse if you want to emphasise the Rettapet contrast, or continue the red for a more traditional silhouette. Warm gold jewellery and a precise pleated drape highlight the vertical zari lines particularly well.
Appropriate for Navratri, Vijayadashami, Diwali, pujas, weddings, receptions, temple ceremonies, festive occasions, ceremonies and cultural gatherings.
