Brocadework in a traditional Kanjeevaram sari is done by introducing fine gold threads manually in between the warp and weft by the artisan to reveal the desired pattern, making it a time-intensive and laborious task, which is done only by the master and skilled weavers. Unstitched threads left on the Pallu of the sari give you a peak into the initial stages of this silken beauty while adding a striking feel to the piece. The lotus or Kamalam motif sumptuously present on the entirety of this pure silk Kanjeevaram sari is related to the great Hindu mother goddess Sri-Lakshmi, who is also known as Padmavati or the lotus-lady, in her south Indian shrines, where the story of Kanjeevaram first unfolded.
With the beauty of Mother Nature and stunning ancient Indian architectural motifs woven together with gold Zari threads and vibrant silk, a Kanjeevaram Sari will always live up to your expectations if you wish to feel queenly and womanly in your traditional Indian women’s wear. Much like most of the other silk ethnic Indian fashion, Kanjeevaram saris are the go-to choices for a bride-to-be or a newlywed young lady. The fame earned by Kanjeevaram is due to a long and detailed process that involves choosing suitable silk yarns, dying them in natural colors, drying them in the sun, and stretching them on a bamboo wood frame to avoid any tangling. The detailed border and pallu decorated with a mingling of silk and Zari threads are crafted separately from the body of a traditional Kanjeevaram sari. A master weaver upon the completion of the three sections stitches them together using a technique of interlinking which is locally called- “pethi”. Handwoven to bring you the goodness of pure silk and glistening golden Zari work, a Kanjeevaram sari has to be your next pick from the treasure chest of traditional Indian fashion.
