Woven in the Butta tradition, A fresh thulir-pachai, the tender green of new leaves after rain, glows across a silk body dotted with small gold buttas. Its soft botanical colour is dramatically set against a saturated neelam-blue pallu and border. Handwoven by artisan weaver families in Kanchipuram district, Tamil Nadu, for Idam Living. A saree of this complexity represents approximately 14 or more active days on the loom, with exact weaving time varying according to the individual saree. Read our story.
Border: The vintage colour combination is framed by a deep neelam-blue border carrying broad thanga-zari ornamental medallions, traditional figurative weaving, floral scrollwork and tightly ordered geometric bands.
Pallu: A truly grand, intricate neelam-blue pallu is filled with finely detailed zari registers, circular ornamental medallions, complex geometric tracery and a succession of richly woven gold panels. The contrast between leaf green and deep blue gives this vintage Kanchipuram palette remarkable character.
Styling: Make the contrast deliberate with a deep neelam-blue raw-silk blouse, a wide squared neckline and long fitted sleeves edged in gold. A fresh-green blouse offers a quieter alternative. Pair with antique-gold earrings, an old-style coin necklace and a centre-parted bun.

Why is this saree in the Vintage Kanchipuram collection?
Why is this saree in the Vintage Kanchipuram collection?
Its tender-green and deep-blue pairing draws on the bold, colour-contrasting language associated with traditional Kanchipuram design. Vintage here describes the design aesthetic, not a claim that the saree is pre-owned.
What makes this a Butta Kanjipuram?
What makes this a Butta Kanjipuram?
Individual gold buttas are scattered across the green body, creating open space between the motifs. The richly woven blue border and pallu provide the more ornamental sections.
How can I style the bright-green and deep-blue combination?
How can I style the bright-green and deep-blue combination?
A deep-blue silk blouse with a simple neckline reinforces the contrast, while an antique-gold blouse offers a warmer finish. Traditional gold jewellery works well with either.
Is the pallu also green?
Is the pallu also green?
No. The grand pallu is deep neelam blue, woven with intricate gold registers and large ornamental roundels, creating a strong contrast with the fresh-green body.
