Product Overview:

• Fabric & Color:

  • The dupatta is crafted from handloom Tussar silk, a fabric prized for its natural sheen and rich texture. Tussar silk, often referred to as “wild silk,” is known for being lightweight, breathable, and having a slightly textured finish, making it a luxurious yet practical choice.
  • The color palette combines a vibrant yellow with deep purple accents, creating a striking contrast. This combination adds a bold, yet elegant touch to any outfit, making the dupatta a versatile accessory.

• Kantha Stitch Embroidery:

  • The dupatta is adorned with Kantha stitch embroidery, a traditional hand-embroidery technique from West Bengal and Bangladesh. Kantha is known for its simple running stitches that create intricate designs, often inspired by nature, folklore, and geometric patterns.
  • The embroidery on this dupatta is done meticulously by artisans, showcasing their skill and adding texture to the Tussar silk fabric. The fine craftsmanship adds a sense of uniqueness to the piece.

• Length & Versatility:

  • Measuring 2.5 meters in length and 36 inches in width, this dupatta offers ample fabric for versatile styling. It can be draped elegantly over traditional outfits like sarees and salwar suits or paired with contemporary ensembles for a fusion look.
  • The luxurious silk fabric paired with the detailed Kantha embroidery makes it suitable for both festive occasions and everyday wear, adding a touch of cultural elegance.

• Cultural & Social Significance:

  • The Kantha embroidery tradition is passed down through generations, primarily by rural women in West Bengal and Bangladesh. It provides a major source of livelihood for the less privileged, empowering artisans by giving them a platform to showcase their skill.
  • Each piece, including this dupatta, is unique and carries the soul of the artisan who created it. The slight irregularities in stitching are part of its charm, reflecting the human touch involved in its making.

Care Instructions:

• Dry clean only to preserve the delicate Tussar silk fabric and the intricate hand embroidery.
