JAMDANI ... The Most Artistic Textile

Post by srabon » Feb 06, 2010 Views: 8934

Jamdani is one of the oldest, most priceless handmade fabric of Bangladesh. It has been spoken of as the most artistic textile of Bangladeshi weaver. Jamdani is mostly used as saree








jamdani is believed to be a fusion of the ancient cloth-making techniques of bangal; parhaps 2000 years old. The Mughal emperor, the Nawab of bangal, and their aristrocrates used to engage agents at Dhaka(now the capital city of Bangladesh) to buy high quality Muslin and Jamdani for their masters use











The expert weavers do not need to draw the design on a paper. they do it from their memory, imagination. A good piece of Jamdani Saree need the labor of two to three months.

yes, it is expensive. Only rich people can afford it. this cloth is very thin and really it is nice.
