The Chettinad cotton sarees are handloom, made from thick, coarse cotton capable of withstanding the roughest wash!!. Checks and temple borders are favoured patterns in hues of earthly reds, oranges, chromes and browns. Those encouraging the revival of this art offer contemporary designs, but the traditional weaving families take the pride in producing the patterns most favoured in the villages around.
