Immerse yourself in traditional elegance with this breathtaking, two-piece Kerala Set Mundu (Mundum Neryathum) from Saroya. Crafted on an authentic off-white cotton base, this ensemble features an exquisite, all-over golden zari micro-check grid (kattom) running seamlessly through both the upper neryathu drape and the lower mundu.
Woven from fine-quality, breathable cotton, it delivers a comfortable, crisp drape designed to stay effortlessly neat during long daytime rituals, temple visits, and grand festive gatherings. The highlight of this creation is its regal, multi-toned woven border—flanking a generous panel of brilliant golden kasavu with bold bands of rich royal purple and deep bottle green, accented by delicate metallic pinstripes.
