Mohana - Handwoven Checks Kanchipuram Pure Silk Saree (Authentic Pure Zari & Silk Mark Certified)
Add a burst of luminous grace to your wardrobe with Mohana, our handwoven Checks Kanchipuram pure silk saree in a radiant parakeet green - a refreshing yellow-green that feels as regal as it is revitalising. Woven from luxurious 4 ply (Murukku Pattu) silk and enriched with pure zari, Mohana carries the quiet grandeur of tradition with a touch of modern allure. Designed for festive days and special gatherings, Mohana brings with it a glow that lingers long after the moment has passed.
The Enchanting Udal (Saree Body): The body of the saree glows with a quiet brilliance, where "golden zari checks" glint across a vivid parakeet green canvas. Woven into this luminous silk are delicate "Mayil Chakram motifs", scattered like sacred symbols of grace, each one shimmering in gold. Their soft and seamless rhythm adds a sense of movement and mystique, as if the fabric itself holds a forgotten melody. With every pleat, the saree drapes in poetry, and with every fold, it catches the light in a gentle shimmer, embracing you in an aura of timeless elegance.
The Majestic Karai (Saree Borders): Framing the saree in bold elegance, the "Retta Pett borders" in a rich purple iris with a touch of magenta bring depth and contrast to the drape. Intricately woven gold zari bands run through the borders, with the upper section showcasing a graceful sequence of whimsical "Annam Gaja Yazhi motifs, interspersed with floral vines", "button buttas", and "chevrons" - all enclosed within lustrous 'Muthu Seer" stripes. A fine row of "leaf anklets" adds a touch of whimsy along the edge. The lower band features "Kamalam motifs", also cradled in "Muthu Seer accents", while a tangelo orange "selvedge" adds a striking flourish to this radiant composition.
The Resplendent Mundhani / Thalaippu (Saree Pallu): The pallu stands as Mohana’s crowning glory - a lavish cascade of gold zari set against a deep iris-purple backdrop kissed with hints of magenta.
The first band is resplendent with majestic "Anna Pakshi" and intricate "GajaYazhi motifs", symbols of grace and strength, flowing through a bed of delicate "floral vines". The second band brings energy and movement with "leaping horse (kuthirai) motifs", also divided by "floral vines". A third slender band features charming "Paisley motifs", subtle yet rich in character.
Surrounding these bands are borders woven with "mayil, diamond and chakram motifs', in sequence each element echoing heritage and depth. The entire composition is beautifully framed with "button buttas nestled within Kattari inspired motifs" that add sharp elegance and structure.
The central field of the pallu glimmers with "diamond motifs adorned with Kamalam buttas", each a radiant gem of artistry in gold zari. Along the edges, bold "Paisley anklets" create a rhythmic, enchanting finish that completes this timeless tapestry of woven mastery.
The Elegant Blouse: Completing this luxurious ensemble is an unstitched blouse in a striking purple iris shade, softly touched with hints of magenta. Its gold zari border reflects the intricate beauty of the saree’s own edge, creating a seamless harmony between tradition and detail.

COTTON CARE
• It is advisable to only dry-clean our Sarees. Use mild detergent to hand wash Cotton Sarees.
WASH, DRY & IRON PURE SILK THE RIGHT WAY
• For first three washes, dry cleaning is advisable for silk fabrics.
• If ever silk is washed in water, ensure it is washed in soft lukewarm water using a good neutral soap only.
• Squeeze lightly by hand to remove water after washing.
• Always dry the silk in shade only on a flat surface instead of hanging.
• Use low to medium heat while ironing.
• Always iron silk on the reverse side.
• Never spray water to dampen silk before ironing as it may cause water spots on the fabric.
• Do not wash the stains with water, instead give it for dry cleaning.
STORE PURE SILKS THE RIGHT WAY
• Store your Silk in a clean and dry environment using Cotton bags; avoid plastic covers.
• Avoid direct contact with wood.
• Protect silk from insects, dust, excessive moisture and light.
• Periodically (every 3-6 months) expose silks to fresh air and store after reversing the folds.
• Wrap Silk Sarees in cotton cloth or brown paper to avoid blackening of zari.
