Bengal, India, is known for its handloom cotton sarees. Fine
texture weaves, transparent, airy and very comfortable, the Bengal handloom
cotton sari is ideal for hot climes and sultry weather. Comfortable, colourful
and classy, the pure cotton sarees are
known for their attractive borders, hand woven bootis with fancy motifs,
exquisite embroidery and exotic hand painting of tribal art.
The Bengal Jamdhani handloom cotton sarees are known as soft and
comfortable wear with eye-catching geometrical and floral patterns, having
motifs hand woven in golden zari thread. This hand woven technique of Jamdhani,
a prominent feature on Bengal handloom sarees has universal application today
by inclusion even in the traditional handloom varieties across India such as Banarasi sarees, Venkatagiri cotton sarees, Uppada cotton sarees, Kanchi cotton sarees, Darmavaram cotton sarees etc.
Based on the variations in the Jamdani weave, sarees can be
termed as Daccai Jamdani, known for its colourful motifs, the Shantipur
Jamdhani for its soft texture, the Fulia Tangail Jamdani for its traditional
borders and the Dhonekai Jamdhani for its colourful hues. Another variety of
cotton handlooms in Bengal is the Kantha sari, known mainly for its running
stitch embroidery on cotton fabrics where other forms of stitches are also used
sometimes. The cotton and gold thread work sets off a wonderful design that
enhances the look of the fabric. Murshidabad, Hoogly Nadia and Burdwan situated
in Bengal State are famous centres for Tant weaves. Likewise Dhaka and Tangail
in Bangla Desh are also known for their Tant cotton sarees.
Motifs of flowers, the sun,
and modern art depictions generally adorn the Tant Saree. The borders of the
fabric are thicker than normal since they are prone to tearing. There are
special Tant sarees like the 6 metre long white cotton fabric instead of the
conventional 5.5 metre saree, it has 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.Tant Sarees are available
as Pure handloom cotton sarees using Meghalaya cotton sarees, Bengal cotton sarees, Assam cotton sarees, Nagaland cotton sarees etc.
While Unnati displays the entire range of Bengal handloom cotton sarees are the recent Tant magic has captured
the imagination of the market. The plain body saree or the one with dots and
motifs, with zari work on the borders and pallu is a widely popular version. An
elegant affair it lends use for a variety of occasions from casual
get-togethers to formal functions. The Tant Saree with checks and zari naksi
border or checks with zari woven lines and accompanied by a broad Zari border
flanking both sides of the Sari is a delightful version. It is a preferred
choice for corporate executives and also serves for casual outings and invites.
Tants cover a wide range from dark to subdued to light breezy hues. You have
beautiful double colour stripes on pastels, light floral breeze versions that
are very eye-catching and more subdued earthy hues plain and lightly adorned.
