Warm Ivory and Peacock Blue Pure Kanchipuram Silk Varisaipet Saree

In warm ivory like sunlit temple stone, peacock blue along the upper edge, Kathiripoo purple through the pettu and cinnamon-copper brown at the hem, this Pure Kanchipuram Silk saree carries the beautiful cadence of traditional Varisaipet handloom weaving. The colour story is richly Kanchipuram: distinctive, luminous and enduring.

❖ Woven on traditional handlooms by artisan families in Kanchipuram, Tamil Nadu, where generations of weaving knowledge shape every saree. Approximately 16 active days on the loom, followed by careful finishing.

A warm ivory body traversed by delicate repeating horizontal zari bands, with a richly tiered purple pettu featuring floral and figurative zari motifs, a peacock-blue upper border and copper-brown lower panel. The repeating horizontal varisai (rows) lend the body a graceful, structured rhythm, while the pettu gathers stacked bands of ornamental zari work. Floral and traditional geometric details are woven into the cloth, not embroidered onto it. Read our story.

Border A richly tiered purple pettu featuring floral and figurative zari motifs, a peacock-blue upper border and copper-brown lower panel.

Pallu A deep kathiripoo-purple pallu with a magnificent gold-toned diamond lattice, floral ornament and broad vertical zari sections. Its concentrated intricacy provides a beautiful counterpoint to the ordered body, recalling the layered ornament of old Kanchipuram temple architecture.

Styling Pair with a tonal silk blouse for a quiet, regal effect or a contrasting Banarasi blouse for wedding gatherings, temple visits and festive celebrations. A beautiful choice for a treasured silk wardrobe or meaningful gifting.
