Vintage Rose and Ruby Red Handwoven Pure Silk Kanchipuram Saree with Rettapet Border

A gentle vintage rose evening calls for grace without excess — the kind worn to a bridal shower, a sangeet, or an intimate family celebration. This saree is woven in the Rettapet style, where twin parallel border lines create a balanced, layered edge along the saree. Each saree takes 12 days on the loom and cannot be replicated by machine. Woven by our family's artisan weaver families in Kunnam village near Kanchipuram, Tamil Nadu — read our story.

The body is woven in vintage rose pure mulberry silk, scattered with delicate gold zari buttas that catch the light with quiet elegance — a soft, romantic addition to our pure silk Kanchipuram collection.

The Rettapet border unfolds in rich ruby red, finished with traditional gold zari motifs that echo temple architecture, carried through into a matching ceremonial pallu.

Pair this saree with a ruby red or gold silk blouse and temple-style gold jewellery — jhumkas, a vanki armlet, and a delicate gold chain — for weddings, engagement ceremonies, temple visits, or festive family gatherings.
