The soft appeal of the Bengal Handloom Cotton Tant Sarees

Come summer and women in India prefer the light, airy, breathing and comfortable cotton sarees as all-day wear. Cotton has always been cooling for the skin because of its absorbing qualities and is a boon for hot climes. One such cotton handloom variety is the Bengal offering – the Tant saree. Traditional in style but modern in outlook, the Tant saree once worn mostly by the women of Bengal, is popular across the nation.


The speciality of the Tant Handlooms
The Tant Handloom is woven from cotton threads and known for its transparency and lightness. Motifs of flowers, the sun, and modern art depictions generally adorn the Tant Saree. The borders of the fabric are thicker than normal since the fineness of the weave make the ends prone to tearing. A Tant version from Dhaniakhali is a 6 metre long white cotton fabric instead of the conventional 5.5 metre saree, with a wide border between 1.5 and 2.0 inches in colours of green, blue, grey and black. The Saree has a mean count of 100 (No. of threads per square inch of warp and weft). Additions of hand painting and appliqué work enhance the price of the saree slightly. The chief minister’s slogan Ma, Mati, Manush (Mother, Earth, Man) finds its way on these sarees to make them popular.
