The Essence of Original Kanjivaram Sarees

Kanchipuram sarees, often referred to as Kanjivaram sarees, originate from the historic town of Kanchipuram in Tamil Nadu, India. These sarees boast a history that spans over a century, making them an integral part of India's cultural heritage. Crafted with intricate details and vibrant colours, they are a true reflection of the skilled craftsmanship that has been passed down through generations.

The distinctive feature that sets them apart is the use of heavy mulberry silk threads in both warp and weft. This meticulous weaving process results in a saree that is not just beautiful but also incredibly durable. The traditional motifs woven into the fabric tell stories of ancient India, making each saree a work of art.

Historical and Cultural Importance

The intricate motifs and designs are often inspired by ancient temples and scriptures, adding to their cultural significance.

Understanding Pure Kanjivaram Silk

When it comes to premium Kanjivaram sarees, the term 'pure silk' is synonymous with quality. Pure silk, in the context of these sarees, means the use of 100% authentic silk threads. This not only enhances the saree's appearance but also ensures its longevity. Authentic Kanjivaram sarees are made with the highest quality of mulberry silk, and at Singhania’s, you will have no compromise when it comes to the quality of silk used.

To determine whether a Kanjivaram saree is made from genuine silk or not, look for the Silk Mark Kanchipuram sarees as a mark of authenticity. The threads should be smooth, lustrous, and soft to the touch. A simple test is to rub the silk between your fingers – genuine silk produces a unique sound known as the 'swish test.' Additionally, real silk will never catch fire easily, and its ashes will turn into crispy flakes when burned.
