CONTRASTING ZARI BORDER- There are varieties of silk sarees produced in India.

electroplated with silver is used to form the designing of the border of the
saree. So, if you want to buy a pure kanchipuram silk saree and not a tested
zari saree, closely examine the colour of the zari work.

BURN TEST- Rip out few threads from the warp
and weft and light a fire at the end of the threads. The pure fibers will burn
down to ashes and would smell like a burnt hair, whereas, artificial fibres
will have no ash upon burning them. You
will only see a flare coming upon burning such fibres. Hence, the test will
prove you the originality.
•
ZARI TEST- Look for the loose end of zari in
the saree. If pulling the zari, you come across white, or anyb other colour,
instead of red, you can be pretty sure that the you do not own a pure
kanchipuram silk saree. A pure kanchipuram silk saree would always be made of a
red silk thread.
•
