Kanak Lata

Fabric & Colour
A radiant Pure Chanderi Silk Saree in vibrant shades of pink and orange, adorned with intricate golden and silver vine motifs running gracefully along its borders. The interplay of warm hues and metallic shimmer creates a drape of striking elegance and regality.

Inspiration Story
The name Kanak Lata combines Kanak (gold) with Lata (vine), symbolizing prosperity entwined with growth and grace. This saree takes inspiration from royal gardens where flowering vines climbed marble arches, their blossoms kissed by sunlight and moonlight alike. With its delicate motifs in dual-tone zari, the saree captures both grandeur and tenderness—an ensemble that carries the aura of queens, echoing courtly evenings filled with music, poetry, and silken splendour. To wear Kanak Lata is to embody the timeless union of strength and refinement.

Weave Technique & Craft Details
Handwoven in the renowned Chanderi weaving tradition, this saree showcases the mastery of silk combined with zari in gold and silver. The continuous vine motifs (lata) along the borders demand great precision, as each curve must remain fluid and harmonious across the entire length. This technique represents one of Chanderi’s most sophisticated expressions, blending delicacy with grandeur. Its sheer yet lustrous texture is a signature of the craft, cherished by royalty and connoisseurs for centuries.

Craftsperson Name
Woven by Aminuddin, a master craftsman of Chanderi, whose artistry carries forward generations of weaving excellence.

No. of Human Hours
