Tissue Kanjivaram

A Tissue Kanjivaram saree is a beautiful blend of traditional Kanjivaram craftsmanship with the lightweight, lustrous texture of tissue fabric. The word "Tissue" refers to a delicate, shiny fabric that is often made from silk or silk-blends interwoven with metallic threads, giving it a shimmering effect. This gives the saree a distinctive, elegant look, while still maintaining the intricate, rich weaving styles that are characteristic of Kanjivaram sarees.

Key Features of Tissue Kanjivaram Sarees:

1. Material: The tissue fabric is usually made from a fine combination of silk and metallic threads, which creates a smooth, lustrous finish. This contributes to the saree’s lightness and shine.

2. Traditional Kanjivaram Designs: Tissue Kanjivaram sarees retain the iconic patterns of traditional Kanjivaram sarees, such as:

   • Temple borders: These intricate borders often feature motifs like lotus flowers or peacocks, inspired by temple architecture.
   • Floral and geometric patterns: The body of the saree may feature elaborate floral designs or geometric motifs.
   • Contrast pallu: The pallu (the part of the saree draped over the shoulder) is usually rich and often contains intricate designs that contrast with the rest of the saree.

3. Lustre and Shine: The tissue fabric adds an extra layer of elegance to the Kanjivaram, with its glossy surface catching the light in a unique way, which makes it perfect for festive or formal occasions.

4. Colors: Tissue Kanjivaram sarees come in vibrant, rich colors such as deep red, royal blue, gold, silver, and green, often with metallic accents that enhance their overall richness.

5. Occasions: Tissue Kanjivaram sarees are perfect for weddings, festivals, or any grand occasion. Their shine and intricate patterns make them ideal for ceremonial events.

Why Choose Tissue Kanjivaram?

• Lightweight: Compared to traditional Kanjivaram sarees, Tissue Kanjivarams tend to be lighter, which makes them easier to drape and wear for long periods.
• Elegance: The metallic sheen combined with intricate silk weaving gives the saree a regal and luxurious look.
• Durability: The blend of silk and metallic threads ensures the saree retains its shine over time, making it a timeless addition to any wardrobe.

Tissue Kanjivaram sarees combine the best of both worlds: the heritage and grandeur of the Kanjivaram tradition with the modern appeal of the shiny, delicate tissue fabric. They are perfect for anyone looking for a sophisticated, opulent look for special occasions.
