Muga Silk - The most valued silk from India. Almost exclusively reared and produced in Assam, India. It is indigenous to the Brahmaputra Valley and assiduously practiced in the districts of Assam. The moth is basically a wild moth. Hence it is categorised as Vanya Silk or Wild silk by the silk board of India.(http://csb.gov.in/silk-sericulture/silk/vanya-silk/)

The yarn produces is a natural rich golden yellow or light brown colour depending on the host plant it feeds on. These are unique products. Muga silks resist sunshine and are more durable than mulberry silks. Muga silks can be termed Organic as no harmful chemicals have been used in the cultivation of host trees or in the processing of silk fabrics. No dyes are applied to the yarns. The golden colour is its natural colour. Most Muga rearing and cultivation is still done by village clusters in Assam in the traditional method.

Mulberry Silk is locally known as Pat Silk and is the most commonly used silk in all our traditional attires.

Here Mulberry is in the warp and Muga is in the weft. The reddish tone of the base is due to the presence of Muga Silk .

Also slight crispness and fluffiness is present due to Muga Silk which upon pressing will settle down.

You can use normal Iron set at silk temperature to press .

It will settle down and will become softer over the years. The beauty of the yarn is that it retains its lustre & looses very little strength even when washed over the years .

The Saree comes with blouse piece. You can also wear it with any contrast coloured matching blouse or jacket.

Saree Length - 5.6 mts , Width - 46 "

We try to capture the exact colours but due to lighting issues , there may be slight difference of colour between the actual product and that of the image.

Also note that there may be some inconsistency on the fabric surface due to the presence of these wild silk yarns and inconsistencies are also part of handloom process. These are not defects .
