This deep plum handwoven Udupi cotton saree features a plain weave body in a rich wine-plum tone with a subtle iridescent quality that shifts between mauve and deep purple in different light. The border runs in a slim mustard-gold stripe with a fine black pinstripe edge, grounding the body with quiet warmth. The pallu makes a bold, considered statement — a deep charcoal-black field of vertical woven stripes in mustard-gold and white, dense and architectural, finished with a mustard border band and hand-cut black fringe tassels.

Handwoven on traditional Malabar Frame looms, introduced to coastal Karnataka by the Basel Mission of Germany, the Udupi cotton saree carries nearly 150 years of weaving heritage in every thread. Delicate in appearance yet built to last generations, this is a GI-tagged revival weave reclaimed by master weavers after nearly being lost to powerlooms. This is a saree that only grows more beautiful with time.

Woven using premium 60s count cotton yarn for both warp and weft, this saree is feather-light, breathable, and crisp against the skin—everything a handloom cotton saree should be. Styled here with an ivory tie-front blouse, this is a saree equally at home at a work meeting and an evening out.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the color of the plum saree look in person?

The saree has a beautiful, subtle iridescent quality. While it appears as a rich, deep plum in neutral lighting, it shifts gracefully between mauve and deep purple tones depending on how the light catches the weave.

What is the "60s count" cotton?

The "60s count" refers to the thickness of the cotton yarn. A 60s count means the yarn is fine and tightly spun, resulting in a fabric that is incredibly lightweight, soft, and highly breathable. It feels crisp against the skin but softens beautifully with every wash, making it the perfect fabric for India's tropical climate.

What blouse styles pair best with this saree?

Since it does not include a blouse piece, you have the freedom to play with styling. A solid ivory, cream, or black blouse creates a sharp, modern look perfect for the office. For a more festive vibe, a mustard or gold-toned blouse will beautifully complement the border and pallu stripes.

How do I care for my Udupi cotton saree?

Udupi cotton is highly durable. You can gently hand wash it in cold water with mild detergent. To maintain the crispness of the 60s count cotton, you may lightly starch it after washing. Always dry in the shade to prevent the colors from fading. Do not wring or twist heavily.

Dry clean only to preserve the softness, natural dye richness, and detailed craftsmanship.

If handwashing, use a mild detergent only—avoid harsh chemicals to protect the fabric.

Store in your custom Seere cotton bag, thoughtfully designed to protect and preserve your saree collection.

Keep away from direct sunlight; always store in shade to maintain the vibrancy of natural dyes.

Use the signature Seere fragrance pouch included with your saree—crafted to keep your drapes and wardrobe spaces fresh, luxurious, and long-lasting.

Any Questions?

Every saree carries a story - from the loom to your doorstep. We're here to help you find answers about fabrics, care, sizing, and everything in between.

Is the Kaniyoor (ಕಣಿಯೂರು) an authentic GI-tagged Udupi cotton saree?

Yes. The Kaniyoor (ಕಣಿಯೂರು) carries GI Registration Number 224, confirming its authentic Udupi cotton origin from Dakshina Kannada, Karnataka. It is handwoven on a traditional Malabar Frame loom — a technique introduced to the region roughly 150 years ago — rather than powerloom-made or printed.

What does the Kaniyoor Udupi Cotton Saree look like, and what occasions does it suit?

The Kaniyoor Udupi Cotton Saree features deep plum with a mustard border and black striped pallu. Woven in lightweight, breathable cotton, it works well for office wear, daily draping, and casual outings, and is especially suited to warm, humid weather thanks to the airy Malabar loom weave.

How much does the Kaniyoor Udupi Cotton Saree cost, and does it include a blouse piece?

The Kaniyoor Udupi Cotton Saree is priced at ₹4,999. This saree does not include a blouse piece. It ships with quality-checked packaging, sourced directly from Dakshina Kannada's weaving community.

How do I wash and care for the Kaniyoor Udupi Cotton Saree?

Gentle hand wash in cold water with mild detergent is recommended for the Kaniyoor Udupi Cotton Saree to preserve the weave and colour. Dry in the shade rather than direct sunlight, and light starching after washing can help maintain the fabric's characteristic crispness.

Will the Kaniyoor Udupi Cotton Saree look exactly like the product photos, and is it one of a kind?

Because the Kaniyoor Udupi Cotton Saree is handwoven, slight variations in shade, check alignment, and motif spacing compared to the photos are natural and expected — this is a hallmark of genuine handloom work, not a defect. No two pieces are perfectly identical.
