- They are predominantly worn by the ladies of South India
(versus sarees worn in the rest of India)
- They are all hand woven
- They come from a small town in Southern India called
Kanchipuram. The town’s whole population is that of
weavers
- These sarees are treasured by South Indian ladies. No
wedding, or special occasions can take place without the
ladies all decked in these finery.
- The brilliant colors and aesthetic use of color combinations
is unique to these sarees
- Silks from South India have a sheen and ability to absorb
color because of the climate that is most conducive to the
mulberry trees on whose leaves the silkworms feed and generate
the silks.
That is why the silks from this part stand apart from those
from any other part of the world. No one in USA has these
sarees exclusively.
My internet store is the only authentic source. We stand by
our product guarantee. We have our weavers in Kanchi who weave
our fabrics.
We do not deal with middlemen – our product goes straight
to the end user. We only deal with silk sarees.
