Kanchivaram weaving is one of India’s oldest silk traditions. Kora silk is woven with a lighter, crisper, more open weave than the classic heavy Kanchivaram, which gives a fresh, airy feel. The body, border and pallu are woven separately and interlocked, which gives a strong border and a bold contrast. The zari stripes, the peacock medallions and the pallu are all woven in zari on the loom, with careful setting of the warp and weft.

Kanchipuram is a temple town in Tamil Nadu and the home of Kanchivaram silk. Weaving families there have passed the craft down through generations. The designs draw on temple architecture and nature, including peacocks, creepers, medallions and diamond lattice patterns.
