It is said that the Kanjivaram Silk Weavers are the descendants of Markanda, who was known for weaving clothes for the Gods themselves. Originating from the small town of Kanchipuram, Tamil Nadu this gorgeous weave has a history of more than 400 years. It is said that the two major weaving communities, the Devangas and the Saligars came all the way from Andra Pradesh and settled in the village of Kanchipuram. Utilizing their weaving skills they started weaving mesmerizing Kanjivaram silk sarees including gorgeous designs of figures they saw on the temples around the town soon after this beautiful fabric earned its popularity and became one of the must-haves from the saree lovers.
Product Techniques:
Kanjeevaram has 3 parts to it- body, border, and pallu. To weave a saree, 3 shuttles are used as they provide the three sources of silk threads (and zari) for different parts of the Kanjeevaram saree. The silk yarn is first separated into warps (according to the colors required) and this forms the warp sheet. Contrast Pallu is woven using the Petni technique.
Pride of India and exclusive loom specific, this handloom saree is made from the finest silk by our weavers, and is a testimony of the weaver's precision and passion.
