Vratham - Pure Kanchipuram Silk Sarees

A Kanchipuram Silk Saree, also known as a Kanjivaram Saree, is the epitome of South Indian elegance and masterful craftsmanship. Originating from the temple town of Kanchipuram in Tamil Nadu, these sarees are renowned for their rich silk fabric, expert hand weaving, and unmatched quality. Woven from pure mulberry silk, they are celebrated for their durability, luxurious texture, and striking beauty.

Introducing Vratham—an exclusive Kanjivaram collection from Shrus, thoughtfully handpicked for our beloved customers. Each saree in this collection is a unique masterpiece, designed to become more than just attire—it’s a memory woven in silk, a keepsake that tells a story of you wearing it with grace and pride.

What makes Kanchipuram sarees truly captivating is their signature charm—a perfect blend of vibrant colors, intricate zari work crafted with gold or silver threads, and elaborate patterns adorning their wide borders. The pallu (draped end) is often embellished with traditional motifs such as peacocks, elephants, and temple designs, making each saree a wearable piece of art.

These sarees are more than just attire—they represent a legacy of skillful artisanship passed down through generations. Pure Kanchipuram Silk Sarees hold a prestigious place in Indian fashion, symbolizing both heritage and grace.

Kanchipuram Silk Sarees: Everything You Need to Know!

The very mention of Kanchipuram silk sarees brings to mind images of rich, lustrous silk, intricate zari work, and an elegance that never fades. Handwoven in the temple town of Kanchipuram, Tamil Nadu, these sarees are crafted using pure mulberry silk and real zari, making them incredibly luxurious and durable. The unique Korvai weaving technique, where the body and border are woven separately and then skillfully interlocked, ensures authenticity and unmatched quality.

Often compared to Banarasi silk, Kanchipuram sarees stand out with their bold temple-inspired motifs, heavier fabric, and striking contrast borders. While they are a bridal favorite, modern variations in pastels, florals, and fusion weaves make them perfect for festivals, formal occasions, and even casual elegance. Their craftsmanship, use of real gold or silver zari, and labor-intensive weaving process contribute to their premium pricing, with sarees starting from ₹8,000 and going up to several lakhs.

A true investment piece, a well-maintained Kanchipuram silk saree can last for generations. Store it in a muslin cloth, dry clean only, and refold it occasionally to prevent creases. If you’re looking for customization, many weavers and brands offer options to personalize colors, motifs, and designs. Known as Kanjivaram silk, Kanchi pattu, Kanchipuram pattu, and Kanchipuram handloom sarees, these timeless drapes are a must-have in every saree lover’s wardrobe.

For those looking to buy an authentic Kanchipuram saree, trusted brands and handloom stores like Shrus bring you exquisite collections straight from the weavers. Whether it’s for a wedding, a celebration, or just to embrace tradition with grace, a Kanchipuram silk saree is always worth it!
