- Welcome to Kanchipuram - A pilgrimage and a holy city in Tamil Nadu. In this episode of "History, Heritage, Festivals & Handlooms of India", I am taking you all to the weavers of authentic Kanjivaram saree. A Kanchipuram saree, also known as Kanjeevaram saree, is a luxurious and traditional silk saree that originates from Kanchipuram, a town in the Indian state of Tamil Nadu. Kanchipuram sarees are renowned for their rich silk texture, vibrant colors, and intricate zari work.
These sarees are crafted from pure mulberry silk, which is known for its fine quality and durability. The silk is sourced from South India, contributing to the authenticity of the saree. One of the distinctive features of Kanchipuram sarees is the elaborate zari work. Zari is metallic thread, often made of gold or silver, which is used to create intricate patterns, motifs, and borders on the saree.
Kanchipuram sarees are characterized by a contrasting border and pallu (the decorative end of the saree). The border is typically broad and adorned with intricate designs, while the pallu features grand zari work. The sarees often showcase traditional South Indian motifs such as peacocks, elephants, mangoes, and temple designs. These motifs add cultural significance to the saree.
Kanchipuram sarees are known for their sturdiness and longevity. The quality of silk used in their production, coupled with expert craftsmanship, ensures that these sarees can last for generations.
The unique weaving technique used in Kanchipuram sarees involves interlacing three silk threads with one zari thread. This weaving process gives the saree its characteristic texture and strength.
Wide Color Palette:
Kanchipuram sarees come in a wide range of colors, from vibrant hues to subtle pastels. The color combinations are carefully chosen to enhance the overall aesthetic appeal of the saree. Traditionally, Kanchipuram sarees are handwoven by skilled artisans. The weaving process is intricate and time-consuming, reflecting the dedication to preserving the craft. It received the Geographical Indication (GI) tag, recognizing them as a product with unique qualities and characteristics associated with the specific geographic region of Kanchipuram.

Now all ladies of my home could realise why Kanchipuram sarees are so costly 😃 ... really awesome sarees and deserve such prices.
Because of increasing gold rate
Because it is authentic, made by pure silk sari from silkworm and using gold, silver. Famous for handloom. This only made from from KANJIVERAM.
Tamilians are respect, love and support the person who come from outside.They are number one in heartful hospitality as you said.
Thank you. My wedding saree 40 years ago cost Rs 5000. Now probably the value is 1 lakh.
Wow lucky you..we can not buy even if we want to wear...😊1 lakh my god
5000rs 40 years ago was life-changing amount too
Mine too😊
My son is so posessive of my wedding saree made of silver gold zari. I thank my parents, weavers and government (supporting weavers) for that saree.❤
Your efforts are commendable. Though weavers of Kanchivaram aka Kanchipuram contribute hugely to the economy of the place, many still live in huge debts. Handloom sarees deserve more support. Thanks for portraying the skill so beautifully. Love from Tamilnadu.
Hi😅😅
She's really good...respectful, soft spoken, non-intrusive and with just the right amount of information and commentary.
Hello priyanka, i always buy kanchipuram sarees but never knew its such a tedious process to make 1 saree.thank you for showing the process in detail.
Hello Priyanka..I am ur New Subscriber.. nice information we always go to buy sarees in kancheepuram
Hi
I have been kancheepuram and bought sarees from AS Babu Shah, prakash Silks, Kanjivaram saree is my favorite. My wedding sarees are very expensive as you mentioned.
My beloved Bharat is the best in the world with so much of diversity in food, saris, festivals, culture, people!
Thank you..after watching your video I checked weather my sarees wr authentic or fake.😀. thankfully all are real authentic,all shopped in Bangalore,but yes heading soon to kanchipuram for one more kanjivaram for me n my sister's..enjoy ur stay..very informative video.
Can u tell one thing?
Hello @preetievijay9610, how did you check for the authenticity of your sarees?
Exactly,what desi traveller shows in this video..kindly go through.
@@preetievijay9610 sorry to bother again . Is it “rubbing on the stone” test ?
@TheOnlineacc pallu aur body mei gap honi chahiye..aur agar gold thread used hai tho they provide a certificate of how much gold n where the gold thread is used.thats enough to know that our purchased kanjivaram is authentic.
Wonderful video, you have shown traditional weaving of kanchipuram saree beautifully .
you have very good presentation skills 👌, good luck
Hi Priyanka I’ve never bought those sarees but the work to make the sarees I’m telling my daughter how much work goes into making all of the different types of sarees take care stay safe bye.
Great video! I went to Kanchipuram last April, bought few silk sarees directly from the weavers for my Son’s wedding.

Very Beautiful effort by you and it is very informative. Thank you
Your efforts are commendable for making us realize the real making of this heritage wear of India
Just for info... There is nothing wrong getting Kanjipuram sari with tested jari... Handloom is best if you want your sari to last very long... Most of us cant afford to buy too costly saris... still we can also buy pure silk saris with beautiful designs for around 6k... If you love saris u have to try Kanjipuram saris at least once.. 😊 Wonderful video bybthe way... ❤
The process of making a saree is really very intricate wonderful vlog Priyanka thanks 🙏👍 for sharing waiting for your next vlog cheers

Very beautiful blog for saree lover, this type of video show the authentic traditional cultural of India. ❤
Mam..not traditional culture of India...it is Tamil Nadu....pls..mind it..
Great job ! By showing the weavers you are showing what India is all about.The artificial design sarees and so called designer sarees are reminiscent of the decay set it by the British rule. What's surprising though is that good travel vloggers like you, also don't care to learn the local language and expect everyone to know English and Hindi .Kudos to the weavers and others who speak Hindi.
My mother is around 80 years now, she knows the threads so well, she used to say, these are mixed zari rolex zari
Thanks for this very beautiful interesting video of the magnificent crafts of India. Though not an Indian but married to one, I will definitely buy a Kanchipuram sari , only I have to learn how to wear it and especially than train to walk with dignity….

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Beautiful video. Abhi sach me samajh agaya ki ie handloom Saree itna costly kyun he , Hamare Sambalpuri saree bhi kuchh ish typ banti he ap jab Odisha ayenge use bhi cover jarur karna mam. ❤
Nice video, beautiful art of making extraordinary looking sarees made from real gold, silver, this art is still alive. Silk making is not done here, but saw it elsewhere, it involves dropping silk worms in their cocoons into boiling water so that the thread stays as one long string, due to this inhumane reasons I stay away from silk. There is another method, silk derived strictly from plants, but it is very expensive. If they can make same sarees using cotton, nylon, rayon or some other man made material, they probably look just as good.
Wonderful work u have done....this was much needed information..tq from bottom of my heart...
My pleasure 😊
Too good worth to watch my dear desi girl. Very informative and amazing. ❤
I hope the weavers get satisfactory pay for all the hard work! I don't know how to thank them
Your great grand daughter will be wearing your saree to remember you.

15:44 The expensive silk yarn buddle is carelessly tossed onto the dirty floors. I wish they handled it with care. Like putting the yarn bundles on plastic sheets. I know they are going to dye it. But can show more care.
