The Story
“Varnam means 'colour' in Tamil. Zari is the salmon-gold of a Kanjeevaram sari's woven border, rendered as a sunburst dial that shifts from rose to warm bronze as the light moves across it.
Coromandel's Varnam collection draws its palette from South Indian colour and craft — each variant a sunburst dial named after a pigment or textile. The Zari edition takes the salmon-gold of Kanjeevaram sari thread. Sold out.
