Vibrant Purple Jamdani Silk Saree with Temple Border and Blue-Green Pallu
Pickup available at Chapel Road Fateh Maidan Abids
Usually ready in 2-4 days
Purple body, dark blue-green pallu — a peacock pairing, and one of the harder colour combinations to pull off without it turning muddy. It works here because the golden zari border sits between the two and keeps them separate.
The floral motifs across the body are Jamdani thread work: woven in with supplementary weft threads while the saree is on the loom, which gives them a slightly raised surface and a reverse side that looks worked rather than blank. The zari border finishes in a pointed temple border, and tassels run along the edge for movement.
Purple is a colour that tends to be left to the end of the shortlist and then chosen, because it photographs beautifully and almost nobody else at the function will be wearing it.

Quick answers
- How strong is the contrast? True contrast — the pallu is a different colour family from the body, not a deeper shade of it.
- What blouse works? Blue-green to match the pallu, or gold to follow the border.
- Care? Dry clean only.
- Can I see it before buying? Yes — video call before purchase; purple is a colour screens rarely get right.
