Parvai Kanchipuram Silk Sari

Sale priceRs. 72,000.00

This handwoven Kanchipuram Korvai silk sari reflects Parvai’s commitment to preserving the spirit of handcrafted excellence while fostering meaningful connections between artisans and patrons. Woven in Chinna Kanchipuram using traditional three-shuttle Korvai weaving techniques, the sari features an altime favourite purple body adorned with delicate floral motifs in gold and silver zari. Contrasting classic orange borders frame the sari beautifully, carrying intricate floral vine patterns in retrapettu format and rows of the traditional pullinakham (tiger’s claw) motif, lending the textile a timeless Kanchipuram character. The pallu continues this elegant visual language and is paired with a one-metre-contrast orange blouse.

Crafted from pure mulberry silk with a two-ply warp and four-ply weft, the sari is handwoven on a traditional jacquard floor loom. Soft, breathable, hypoallergenic, and easy to drape, it is designed as an heirloom textile that will retain its beauty for generations. Requiring over 200 person-hours of craftsmanship, the sari is sustainably produced, available as a single exclusive piece, and created with artisans being paid dignified wages throughout the process.

Project Anupama, under which this sari was developed, emerged from an in-house design exploration inspired by floral forms and layered colour compositions. The intention was to create motifs that carried softness, depth, and elegance while remaining timeless and wearable. The project was embraced with great enthusiasm by the weaver family, reflecting the collaborative spirit that lies at the heart of Parvai’s work.

Care & Product Notes

A few things we would like you to know
Care
Air your Parvai sari after wear and store it in a clean cotton or muslin cover, away from direct sunlight, moisture and plastic. Refold it from time to time so that the same creases do not remain under stress, especially along zari-rich borders and pallus. Heavier saris are best stored folded or gently rolled rather than hung for long periods. Clean only when necessary, preferably through a trusted specialist familiar with fine silk and handwoven textiles.
Handwoven Character
Every Parvai textile is handmade and may carry slight variations in weave, texture, colour, motif placement, finish or dimensions. These are natural to the making process and are part of the textile’s character, not defects. Measurements and weights are approximate.
