Is Kanchi Silk Pure Silk?

by RmKV Silks 28 Jan 2025
Is Kanchi Silk Pure Silk?

From its luxurious appearance to the soft feel of its fabric, silk epitomizes elegance and refinement. Among the many silk varieties, Kanchipuram silk stands out as a true treasure, renowned for its authenticity, durability, and grandeur. But what makes Kanchi silk "pure silk"? Let’s delve deeper.

What is Kanchipuram Silk?

Originating over 150 years ago in the temple town of Kanchipuram in Tamil Nadu, Kanchipuram silk sarees are crafted using pure mulberry silk threads. These sarees are distinguished by their vibrant color combinations, intricate patterns, and richly woven borders that often feature gold and silver zari. The hallmark of Kanchipuram silk lies in its unparalleled craftsmanship and the use of 100% natural silk, ensuring that every saree is both luxurious and durable.

How to Identify Pure Kanchipuram Silk?

When investing in a saree online or exploring a new saree collection, you might wonder how to ensure you’re purchasing authentic Kanchipuram silk. Here are some tips:

  1. The Silk Mark: Look for the "Silk Mark" certification, which guarantees the saree is made from pure silk.

  2. Zari Authenticity: Pure Kanchipuram silk sarees often feature zari made from a combination of silk thread and real silver or copper coated with gold.

  3. Weaving Technique: The body and border of a genuine Kanchipuram saree are woven separately and joined in loom itself using Korvai technique, ensuring longevity.

  4. Feel and Appearance: Authentic Kanchipuram silk feels smooth, has a natural sheen, and retains its vibrant colors for years.

Why Choose Kanchipuram Silk for Special Occasions?

Whether it’s for a wedding, a festive celebration, or a traditional event, Kanchipuram silk sarees are synonymous with auspiciousness and grandeur.
