Tassels / Kuchu — Hand-Tied Knots
All measurements in inches. Bust and waist are full round (circumference). Half an inch to one inch variation is possible. If between sizes, choose the larger size. The letters in the drawings match the table columns. Easiest way to measure: lay a top or skirt that fits well flat on a table; for B, C and E measure straight across and double it.

Hand-tied tassels, called kuchu in Tamil: our team knots the loose threads at the pallu end into neat, even tassels. They are made from the saree's own threads — not beaded, not ready-made.
- Time: adds about 5–7 working days before dispatch
- Style: plain knotted tassels from the saree's threads; beaded and designer kuchu are not offered yet
- Already has tassels? Sarees that come with tassels say so in their description and do not need this
- Returns: a finished saree is customised for you and cannot be returned or exchanged
This service is added from a saree's page. Please add it together with the saree it is for.
