Welcome to the world of Bhagalpuri Weaves — a timeless expression of India’s rich handloom heritage and artistic excellence. Originating from Bhagalpur, a historic town located on the banks of the river Ganga in Bihar, this craft has been practiced for over two centuries, earning Bhagalpur the proud title of “The Silk City of India.”
Bhagalpuri silk is known for its natural sheen, lightweight texture, and durability. Unlike other silks that may feel heavy, Bhagalpuri silk offers a comfortable drape, making it suitable for both festive and casual wear. The natural irregularities in the yarn add a rustic, handwoven charm that makes each piece one-of-a-kind.
Various forms of silk are used in Bhagalpuri weaving — Tussar silk, Eri silk, and Mulberry silk being the most popular. Each variety brings a unique texture and shine, catering to diverse tastes and occasions.
