Handloom Grey Double Shade Pure Silk Kanjivaram Saree With Horizontal Zari Stripes

The Indian handloom industry boasts several handicrafts that offer unrivalled elegance and incredible durability to a plethora of customers across the world. Kanjivaram is one such handicraft from the land of Kanchipuram, Tamil Nadu, that has the ability to keep you hooked on its aesthetic appeal and can last for generations. This grey double-shade handloom is a pure silk masterpiece made using the age-old Korvai weaving technique. These sarees are made using the Korvai weaving technique, which can only be done by hand. To create a masterpiece like this, two highly skilled, professional weavers must work on the same loom at the same time to complete the process. 

Furthermore, three shuttles are used to weave this one-of-a-kind Kanchipuram silk saree; the weavers sit at the weft ends of the loom, crafting the body and border of this saree separately. These are then attached by the petni method. While the fabric and intricate weaving technique are what make it an heirloom-worthy masterpiece, it is the horizontal zari stripes adorned all over its expanse that steal the limelight. Regardless of whether you wear it to the Thiruvaiyaru festival or a friend’s wedding, you are destined to turn heads.
