Description
This handicraft is made by original Pattamadai weavers. It is located in Tirunelveli district of Tamilnadu. It is also called korai or korai paai and its made up of special kind of grass called korai (cyperus pangorei). We customize the mat as requested by customer.
The Korai is cut very thin(1:8 or 1:4) and then is used in weaving these mats. This is reason why mat is soft and light weight.
Speciality of pattamadai mats is that it uses purely natural colours/dyes.
Pattamadai mats are weaved with passion for beauty and artistic talent

Purchased this coloured mat recently. The colour and design is exactly as shown in the picture. Quality is too good, very soft in nature, mat is well finished. Worth every penny spent on this. I am satisfied with the purchase. They are using selective soft nature korai to weave the mat.

I came across this site and was happy to see that pattu pais / mats were available online. I really loved the above colour combination and ordered two for my daughter’ s wedding and paid online for the same. I contacted Ms. Ramya Kadiravan and she said it would take 2 weeks for the weavers to weave them. I waited patiently and although the courier took a little longer than expected, I got them today ie 10th June 2022.And it’s truly amazing. The vibrant colors and the mats woven so softly, make it really amazing.
Ms. Ramya Kadiravan helped us by getting in touch with the courier people when the delivery of the mats got delayed. She was in touch constantly and ensured that if reached us right. Thanks Ramya and a big thanks to the weavers who wove these wonderful mats. Pattu pais Or silk mats are an integral part of a TamBrahm wedding.
