Coral Thilagam Kanchipuram Silk Saree

Dry clean only. This is pure silk with pure zari, and it should not be washed at home.

• Dry clean only to preserve the richness of the silk and zari
• Store folded in a breathable muslin cloth or cotton bag, never in plastic for long periods
• Keep away from direct sunlight, moisture and perfume
• Use sweat pads with the blouse to protect the silk from moisture
• Refold along different lines every few months and air the saree in shade
• Fold with the zari facing inwards to retain its natural sheen
• Iron on a low silk setting from the reverse, with a cloth over the fabric. Never iron directly on the zari
• Apply perfume and hairspray before draping, never on the saree

With thoughtful care, a pure Kanchipuram silk saree can be cherished for decades and may become an heirloom.

This saree is handwoven using traditional Kanchipuram weaving techniques, so no two pieces are identical. The following are marks of hand weaving, not defects:

• Subtle variation in the texture and sheen of the silk across the body
• Minor irregularity in the spacing or size of the zari motifs
• Occasional loose threads on the reverse, where the zari is carried across the motifs and border

Colour Representation

We photograph every saree under neutral lighting to represent its tone as accurately as possible. However, slight variations may occur due to:

• Lighting conditions
• Fabric texture and weave
• Screen or device settings

Zari reflects light differently from silk, so the saree can look brighter in daylight and deeper in low light.

If you would like more clarity, we are happy to assist with:

• Additional close-up photos
• A personalised video call appointment

These characteristics are inherent to hand weaving and are not considered defects. They are what make each Ayraa saree truly one of a kind.

Blouse: The plain blouse with subtle line detailing keeps the focus on the coral body and buttas. For a richer festive look, pair it with a gold zari blouse instead.

Jewellery: Temple gold or antique gold jhumkas with a short necklace. Pearls soften the look for a daytime pooja.

Drape: Pleat it the usual way with the pallu over your left shoulder, so the geometric zari pallu is seen in full.

Wear it to: festive days, poojas, family functions and wedding-guest looks.
