The border is woven in gold zari with a row of large paisleys between bands of flowers and medallions. The pallu is woven in a fine gold zari diamond pattern with a soft green sheen and a zari band at its edge, and it ends in tassels. A matching teal green blouse piece with a paisley zari border comes with the saree. It suits weddings, festivals and special occasions.

Kanchivaram weaving is one of India’s oldest silk traditions. The body, border and pallu are woven separately and interlocked, which gives a strong border. The dual tone effect comes from weaving the warp and weft in two different colours, so the silk changes shade as it moves. The zari checks, the buttas, the paisley border and the diamond 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 art and nature, including peacocks, paisleys, medallions and diamond lattice patterns.
