Collection: Kanjeevaram

Kanjeevaram silk sarees - These are woven from pure mulberry worm is finely converted to produce the Kanjeevaram silk.  To weave a Kanchipuram/ Kanjeevaram sari three shuttles are used. While the weaver works on the right side, his aide works on the left side shuttle. The border color and design are usually quite different from the body. If the pallu (the hanging end of the sari) must be woven in a different shade, it is first separately woven and then delicately joined to the Sari. The part where the body meets the pallu is often denoted by a zig zag line. In a genuine Kanchipuram Silk Sari, body and border are woven separately and then interlocked together. The joint is woven so strongly that even if the sarees tears, the border will not detach. That differentiates the Kanjeevaram silk sarees from the others.
