This Kanchipuram Pure Silk Handloom Saree is a masterpiece of traditional weaving, characterized by its exquisite detailing and luxurious feel.
Here is a detailed description based on the key features:
Authentic Kanchipuram Craftsmanship:
Pure Silk: Crafted from 100% pure mulberry silk, renowned for its rich texture, natural sheen, and exceptional durability.
Handloom Double Warp: Woven on a traditional handloom using a ‘double warp’ technique, which contributes to the saree’s substantial weight, density, and luxurious drape, distinguishing it from power loom variants.
Contrast Grand Pallu and Blouse: Features a striking contrast pallu (end piece) and a matching contrast blouse piece, traditionally woven in a different, often vibrant, color to create a dramatic and classic Kanchipuram look. The pallu is “Grand,” meaning it is heavily adorned with rich Zari work, making it the focal point of the saree.
Zari Kattam: The body of the saree is intricately woven with a ‘Kattam’ pattern, which refers to a checks design. This pattern is created using Zari (metallic thread, often containing silver and/or gold) to form the square or checked grid across the fabric.
2G Zari: This indicates the grade or quantity of the Zari used. “2G” (likely referring to a higher gram/weight) suggests a generous and rich use of Zari in the weaving, particularly in the kattam and the grand pallu, giving the saree a magnificent, opulent shimmer.
Certification of Purity:
SILK MARK TAG WITH HOLOGRAM: This certification tag guarantees that the saree is made of 100% pure natural silk as verified by the Silk Mark Organisation of India (SMOI). The hologram ensures the authenticity of the certification.
Overall Aesthetic:
This saree is an ideal choice for grand occasions like weddings, festivals, and formal events, reflecting the timeless elegance and rich cultural heritage of a genuine Kanchipuram silk saree. The combination of the heavy double-warp silk, the intricate Zari checks (kattam), and the dramatic contrast of the grand pallu and blouse makes it a truly magnificent heirloom piece.
