Kanjeevaram Laces - Traditional Trims

Kanjeevaram Laces — Traditional Trims from South India's Most Precious Silk Weaving Heritage

A Kanjeevaram lace is a border trim of extraordinary cultural prestige and visual richness — woven in the same tradition as the legendary Kanjivaram saree, using the same pure mulberry silk and real gold zari that have made Kanchipuram the silk weaving capital of South India for over 400 years. The Kanjeevaram tradition — practised by the Devangas and Saliyas weaving communities of Kanchipuram in Tamil Nadu — is characterised by its extraordinary interlocking warp technique, where the border is woven separately from the body of the fabric and then interlocked with it, creating a border of exceptional strength and durability that will outlast the garment it adorns. As a lace or border trim, Kanjeevaram brings this South Indian royal heritage to the edges of sarees, suits, and dupattas — adding a strip of authentic Kanchipuram silk and zari craftsmanship that is instantly recognisable to connoisseurs of India's finest textiles. At Luxurion World, our Kanjeevaram laces are woven by the master weavers of Kanchipuram, paying above-fair compensation to preserve this GI-tagged tradition.
