Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Does this Arangetram Kanchipuram silk saree include a blouse piece?
A: Yes, absolutely. This saree comes with an unstitched blouse piece, approximately 80cm in length, in the same vibrant rani pink as the saree body. Our tailors at Shanthi Tailors often recommend contrasting embroidery for dance costumes.
Q: Is this Kanchipuram saree suitable for a Bharatanatyam Arangetram costume?
A: This saree is an excellent choice for a Bharatanatyam Arangetram. Its pure Kanchipuram silk fabric, rich color, and substantial drape are favored by dance academies. The weight helps hold pleats, and the gold zari ensures a regal presence on stage, a detail we've observed in countless performances since 1967.
Q: How should I care for this pure Kanchipuram silk handloom saree?
A: We strongly recommend dry cleaning only for this pure Kanchipuram silk saree to maintain its luster and the integrity of the gold zari. When storing, fold it carefully with butter paper or a soft cotton cloth to protect the zari, and keep it away from direct sunlight and moisture. Avoid using hangers, as they can stress the fabric.

A: This is a genuine Kanchipuram silk saree, recognized by its distinct heavy silk weave, the contrasting wide pure gold zari border with traditional motifs like peacocks and chakras, and the characteristic stiffness that softens with wear.
