{"product_id":"bharatanatyam-kanchipuram-silk-saree-pista-purple","title":"Pista Green with  Purple |  Kanchipuram Silk Saree | Arangetram | SESS50","description":"The specific hue of this saree, a serene pista green that leans towards a soft aqua, immediately commanded our attention, especially when contrasted with the vibrant, regal purple of its border. The intricate gold zari peacock and geometric patterns woven into the broad Kanchipuram silk border are not just decorative; they tell a story of generations of handloom artistry. Each mango motif delicately scattered across the body catches the light with a subtle, almost ethereal glow, reflecting the dedication of the weavers. This is the kind of Kanchipuram silk Shanthi Tailors has proudly offered since 1967, a textile that marries tradition with undeniable stage presence.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Performer's Radiance, The Connoisseur's Treasure\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFor the Connoisseur:\u003c\/strong\u003e This distinct shade of pista green, subtly shimmering, presents a refreshing perspective on classic Kanchipuram silk.
