JONAKI (HANDLOOM COTTON SAREE)

STORY:

Setting herself free from the already failed union, freed her soul from the years of baggage. Women have been ostracized, ridiculed and forced into unfulfilling unions that, in some cases, eventually silenced them, but she, she was a survivor. She was the sort who could work, borrow money, vote, buy houses, start businesses, travel the world and have children without ever formally attaching herself to a union or rather the fixation of a union. And in that silver lining, enclosed she was, but radiating opportunity, the beauty in the feeling, the beauty in the growing. She is a powerhouse of strength, don’t let anyone tell you anything else. She is Jonaki

DESCRIPTION:

Handloom cotton fabric is woven using hand operated looms. The warp (length) and weft (width) are two sets of interlacing yarns woven by weavers on a mechanised loom that do not use electricity. Loom fabric as a result becomes soft, durable and provides more comfort in comparison to machine-made fabric. Loom fabric that is woven with love by someone, definitely gives you a unique feel and 

Handloom cotton is more breathable and therefore, feels lighter in summers and provides more insulation in winters. Also, colour penetration in handloom cotton is more, thus making it more easier fabric for dyeing. Due to better absorbance of colour, handloom cotton looks more splendid than machine-made. Most importantly, human handling lends the fabrics a unique feel and gives the fabrics greater value.

A labour intensive skill, the art of handweaving takes 20-25 days for a saree to be handwoven. Supporting handloom fabric supports our ancient heritage of rich weaving and encourages the weavers to continue practicing this precious art-form.
