Buying guide
Before you choose
The peacock border is the mark of these sarees: small peacocks in zari along the edge, in gold, antique gold, silver, or copper. The body is plain Mangalagiri pattu so the border stays the point. Gold reads warm for a wedding or a puja. Silver is the cooler metal. Copper sits well on slate and olive. Each border is woven, not printed or stuck on. Hold the pallu to the light. The motif should be the same idea on both faces, with the small irregularities of a pit loom.

Prices are on every piece. The live list is also on the Mangalagiri saree price page. Free India shipping above ₹1,000. If you are choosing between two colours for one function, send both names on WhatsApp and we will tell you which border shows more in daylight. The border is the slow part of the month on the loom, because the zari is lifted separately from the plain body. A wider gold border uses more metal than a narrow copper one, and that is why two peacock sarees on this page can differ in price.
- Is the peacock printed?
- No. It is zari, woven with the border on the pit loom. A print will look flat on the reverse. A woven border will not.
- Can I buy this border in cotton?
- Cotton lots are listed when they leave the loom. The peacock-border pieces on sale today are Mangalagiri pattu.
