Green and gold ikat diamonds spread across the maroon body of this Kalamkari Kanchipuram saree, the yarn tied and dyed before it ever reached the loom. The pallu turns sea green and carries painted medallions of parrots, peacocks and lotus set among leafy vines. A wide gold zari Kanchi border joins the two halves and holds the drape together. Combining a woven ikat body with hand painting is a specialty of Srikalahasti. A distinctive saree for festival evenings and family weddings.

The craft
Kalamkari Kanchipuram
Kalamkari is a centuries old hand painting art from Andhra Pradesh, most famously from Srikalahasti, where every motif is drawn freehand with a bamboo pen called a kalam and set with natural dyes. Scenes from mythology, temples, peacocks and lotuses are painted onto silk over many patient days. A wearable work of art, treasured for festivals, weddings and special occasions.
