The enchanting spreads of the Chanderi Silk saree

Chanderi in M.P., India is traditionally the home of the famed Chanderi sarees, known for the stylistic Bootis and extraordinary threadwork on fine weaves in silk and cotton. The Chanderi silk saree has been familiar for its mostly light to moderate hues in pleasing patterns and its most attractive feature – the large bootis. With plain to moderately adorned patterns or motifs and small but attractive coloured borders and exquisite pallus with some adornment, Chanderi Silks have been popular for the extremely fine texture and sheer quality.

The charm and allure of the Chanderi Silk Saree

It is the single filature method of weaving and the fineness of the yarn used that produces the outcome of a fabric so sheer and so fine in texture, that it is a tribute to the spirit of the weavers who are the authors of this wonderful creation. Enhancing the beauty further is the ‘Booti’, ‘Butti’ or motif, which is an interlaced, hand-woven, shape, consisting of gold, silver or copper coated threads. The Asharfi Butti, or Gold Coin shaped Booti has been a popular choice since earlier times, though the pure gold or silver used in its making has given way to tested Zari, which is woven from synthetic yarn by needles of different sizes. The bigger version of the ‘Butti’ is popularly known as ‘Butta’.

A major difference in the making methods is that the ‘Bootis’ of hand-woven Chanderi saris, retain their shape and appearance throughout the life of the fabric, with no thread coming out from the ‘Butti’ structure.

The same cannot be said for the one woven from synthetic yarn, which tends to lose the initial shape and appearance after some time. Brilliant floral designs or batik, adorn the Chanderi silk saree, and Buttis once only hand-woven on the fabric, have been replaced by gold-printed ‘Butti’prints on the silk fabric body.

Mysore Silk Sarees Portray Grandeur In The Purest Form

The Mysore Silk Saree was introduced initially as a fabric for the Royal family. Later it became a grand fabric for the public at large, to be worn on special occasions. The passage of time has neither dimmed its grandeur nor diminished its appeal.   

Mysore, Karnataka is the home of the Mysore Silk Sarees; elegant showpieces of grandeur worthy of their creation. Despite its long innings in the Indian market it has neither lost its appeal nor has the demand ceased.

The distinguishing feature of this saree is the usage of pure silk and 100% pure gold zari (a golden coloured thread containing 65% of silver and 0.65% of gold)

The Mysore silk saree is famous for the purity of its silk and a very painstaking process in its making, which ensures that every aspect of the sari is perfect. It has place of pride for its sheen, the purity of the zari used, its softness and its non-crushable quality. The sari rarely fades owing to the purity of the gold and silver used. Despite being a costly and delicate fabric, it does not require excessive care for its maintenance. 

Once exclusively created for the Royal Wodeyar family of Mysore, the Mysore Silks are today under the direct control of the Karnataka Silk Industries Corporation (KSIC) in all aspects of theri creation. Geographical Indication Certification was received in 2009, making Mysore Silk a geographical indication, which provides legal status and rights as a place-named product.

Mysore silk sarees are further enhanced with the use of kasuti embroidery, thickly woven pallus, Bandhani incorporations and colour experiments.

Kasuti is a traditional form of embroidery practiced in Karnataka, India. Kasuti work is very intricate and sometimes involves putting a large number of stitches by hand on traditional silk sarees like Ilkal and Kanjeevaram. The Karnataka Handicrafts Development Corporation (KHDC) has Intellectual Property rights on Kasuti.

The name Kasuti is derived from the words Kai (meaning hand) and Suti (meaning cotton), indicating an activity that is done using cotton and hands. Dating back to the chalukya period, it is an intricate art form that was practised by women courtiers.

Kasuti work involves embroidering intricate patterns like chariot, lamps and conch shells on the fabrics. The work is laborious and involves counting of each thread on the cloth. The patterns are stitched without using knots to ensure that both sides of the cloth look alike.

Locally available materials are used for Kasuti. The item that is to be decorated is first marked with charcoal, pencil or carbon paper and then suitable colored thread and needles are selected. The patterns are stitched with different varieties of stitches to obtain the desired pattern.

A recent trend introduced is the use of netted cloth to make the job easy, especially for less-skilled women to do the embroidery. Women require a month to lay Kasuti on a sari

Whatever be the adornments on the silk fabric, the Mysore Silk Saree till today, retains its quality and reputation as the purest of traditional silk sarees in the country.
