THE ART OF PATTU WEAVING
Each Pattu silk saree is a labour of love, taking 15-45 days to create. Here's the journey from raw silk to a treasured heirloom.
Silk Thread Selection
Pure mulberry silk threads are carefully selected and tested for strength. Only the finest quality threads make it to the loom.
Dyeing & Preparation
Threads are hand-dyed using traditional methods with natural and eco-friendly colors. Each color batch is tested for consistency and fastness.
Zari Thread Making
Pure gold-dipped silver threads (zari) are prepared by drawing silver wire through gold coating. Each thread is thinner than a hair.
Handloom Weaving
Master weavers work on traditional pit looms, interlacing thousands of silk and zari threads. A single saree can take 15-45 days to complete.
Quality Inspection
Each saree undergoes rigorous quality checks for thread count, zari purity, color consistency, and weaving precision before certification.
Finishing & Packaging
The saree is washed, pressed, and packaged with a GI tag certificate and artisan story card, ready to become a family heirloom.

Pattu vs Other Silk Sarees
Pattu is a South Indian pure-silk weave known for temple borders, contrast pallus and heavy zari. Banarasi silk from Varanasi features Mughal-inspired brocade. Kanjivaram is a premium sub-category of Pattu from Kanchipuram. All are pure silk — but Pattu is defined by its GI-tagged South Indian handloom heritage.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is a Pattu Saree?+
A Pattu Saree is a traditional South Indian silk saree handwoven from pure mulberry silk and real zari (gold-dipped silver thread). Renowned for their lustrous drape, temple borders and heirloom quality, Pattu sarees are worn for weddings, festivals and temple visits across India.
What is the difference between Pattu and regular silk sarees?+
All Pattu sarees are silk, but not all silk sarees qualify as Pattu. Pattu specifically refers to South Indian pure mulberry silk sarees (Kanchipuram, Arni, Dharmavaram) woven on handlooms with real zari, GI-tag certification and traditional temple, peacock or floral motifs.
How can I identify a pure silk Pattu saree?+
Check for a GI (Geographical Indication) tag, perform a burn test on a stray thread (pure silk smells like burnt hair and leaves ash), verify zari purity with the silk-mark hologram, and look for a uniform weave with no power-loom stitching lines. Every KalaHubIndia Pattu saree ships with an authenticity certificate.
How do I care for a Pattu silk saree?+
Dry-clean only, store folded in a soft cotton or muslin cloth away from direct sunlight, refold every 3 months to prevent zari cracking, and never spray perfume or deodorant directly on the silk. Air the saree for 2 hours after each wear.

Yes. Our Bridal Pattu collection features heavy Kanchipuram silks with grand temple pallus, contrast borders and rich zari work — designed specifically for brides, muhurtham, reception and traditional South Indian wedding ceremonies.
