Woven in Kerala
Kerala's handloom tradition runs deep, but Chendamangalam is where it is most alive.
Tucked in Ernakulam district, this small village sits at a rare geographical confluence, three rivers including the Periyar, seven inlets, hillocks and plains, where weavers have worked the loom for over three centuries.
The craft itself arrived with weavers brought from Tamil Nadu's Devangar community by the Paliyath Achans, prime ministers of the Cochin kingdom.
What began as a new employment for local youth became, over generations, a living tradition. Each saree carries the weight of that history, woven by hand, one thread at a time.
Four deliberate steps. No shortcuts.
Cotton yarn sourced from Tamil Nadu is cured, boiled, dyed in natural or low-impact dyes, indigo, pomegranate rind, turmeric among the traditional choices, and dried over several days before a thread is wound.
Around 6,000 warp threads are rolled, starched, oiled and arranged in sequence. The warp is the foundation that determines the cloth’s width, border and density.
The weaver operates the loom entirely by hand and foot, every interlacement of warp and weft a deliberate, counted act. A six-metre saree takes three to five days of continuous work.
The completed fabric is hand-checked, hand-folded, and packed for dispatch. No ironing, no machinery. Each piece carries the Handloom Mark, India’s official certification that the cloth was woven by hand on a traditional loom.

It is truly an honour to have a garment in my wardrobe from Neythkari which resonates the rich weaving heritage of Chennamangalam. All the love, warmth and sweat is appreciated and big kudos to Neythkari for bringing weavers into the forefront.

I am a regular customer of Neythkari and I personally know the business very well. They have amazing customer quality and service. I had purchased few casual and occasional wears for my mom few months back and she was delighted. The quality of the products are very elegant and brings out an exquisite nature while wearing them. Each purchase is worth it and very comfortable to wear. Lovely and great service, very recommended.
This saree is extremely soft. The moment we wear it, our body recognises that it is a saree that has been woven with such care. It gives a classy look. This garment gives us confidence along with our natural uniqueness. Thank you Neythkari.
