This is a confirmed Butta composition in pure mulberry silk, with individually woven decorative motifs placed at measured intervals across the body silk. A saree of this type typically represents approximately 16 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 composed with alternating handwoven zari buttas, including delicate traditional motifs placed at measured intervals across the silk, their restrained scale keeping the purple prominent while introducing a rhythm of gold. The border is particularly intricate, with a broad antique gold zari field woven with repeating traditional Mayil motifs, framed by fine ornamental bands. The grand pallu is exceptionally detailed — a dense geometric zari field surrounded by multiple traditional woven registers, producing a rich old-world Kanchipuram effect against the purple silk.

Styling: Pair the Royal Purple with antique-finish temple jewellery or classic gold jewellery. A matching purple blouse keeps the look stately, while an antique gold or contrasting deep green blouse can give it a more ceremonial finish.
