This is a confirmed Rettapet composition in pure mulberry silk, with a doubled-yarn construction that gives the woven surface a subtly ridged texture and added durability. A saree of this type typically represents approximately 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 body is distinguished by an all-over Veldhari weave, with fine horizontal antique gold zari lines running rhythmically across the Turmeric Yellow silk, catching the light in slender flashes of gold as the saree is draped. The broad Royal Blue border is the defining visual counterpoint — expansive and almost architectural in scale, with intricate antique gold zari registers and rows of traditional ornamental motifs along the transition. The pallu develops the gold zari into a far richer composition, with a dense geometric lattice framed by repeated ornamental registers and pointed temple-inspired zari detailing against Royal Blue.

Styling: Pair it with a Royal Blue blouse to amplify the dramatic broad border. Traditional gold jewellery keeps the palette classic, while antique-finish temple jewellery works particularly beautifully against the Turmeric Yellow silk.
