It is a heavier, tighter cotton than most, which is why it holds a crisp pleat instead of collapsing, and why it softens with every wash rather than wearing thin. The body and the border are woven in different colours on the same loom, not stitched together afterwards. Run your thumb along where the two meet when it arrives: you will feel the weave change, not a seam.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA dusty blue grey body, the colour coming from a navy warp crossed with a warmer weft, so it shifts slightly as the light moves. One navy and gold mango motif sits near the shoulder. The navy border is the statement: a broad mustard band of paisleys with floral centres, topped by a row of small leaf shapes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePure cotton, so it breathes through a Delhi summer. The greyed body is unusual for a Chettinad and reads more contemporary than the brighter pieces. Pair it with navy, or with white for summer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eDetails\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeave: Chettinad handloom\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOrigin: Chettinad (Karaikudi), Tamil Nadu\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFabric: Pure handloom cotton\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColour: Dusty blue grey with navy border\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMotifs: Navy and gold mango butta; paisley and leaf mustard border\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 550 g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLength: 6.5 m including blouse piece\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eHandwoven, so slight irregularities in the weave and motif spacing are natural and not defects.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tanjore Silks","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49229506904164,"sku":"TS-CH-DBG-01","price":1999.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0805\/1048\/4580\/files\/dusty-blue-grey-saree-navy-paisley-border-front.png?v=1789054762","url":"https:\/\/tanjoresilks.com\/products\/dusty-blue-grey-chettinad-cotton-saree-navy-paisley-border","provider":"Tanjore Silks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
