In all those moments where the intricacies of Indian crafts intersect with the culture, the craft of Jamdani profoundly stands out. A craft that has become an identity for its weaving community is known for its legendary weaving technique. Its advanced and complex discontinuous weft weaving process produces one of the softest fabrics in the world. So soft and fine is the fabric that it can easily pass through a ring. What makes it more mesmerizing are its motifs and patterns, the Jhalar, Butidar, and Tercha.
Curating a collection of women's Jamdani kurta sets for Jaypore has been a pleasure. Made from the finest premium cotton, our collection exemplifies the mastery of Indian craftsmanship. These kurta sets feature soft pastel colours, making them an excellent choice for various occasions.
We first see written mentions of Jamdani from a 9th-century Arab traveller, Sulaiman. He extensively wrote about a soft and delicate fabric from the kingdom of Rashmi (undivided Bengal). In his book, he further mentions that it was so fine that it could easily pass through a ring. While the political boundaries shifted and kingdoms fell and rose in the Bengal region, the craft stood the test of time. By the 12th century, the weavers started imbibing Islamic influences in the craft. This resulted in Arabic-inspired motifs being woven into the craft. It reached its prime during the Mughal reign. They were known to admire and promote the craft and made it famous beyond the borders as well.
Jaypore's Jamdani kurtas resemble the mastery of the artisans over the years. Each kurta is made from high-quality premium cotton, offering you the utmost comfort and style. Let's dive deeper into our collection:
Jaypore's collection of ranges from INR 7,300 to 12,500. Each kurta has its unique appeal that suits various occasions.
Jamdani has one of the most complex weaving techniques in the world. The fabrics are hand-woven by the weavers using a discontinuous warp technique. At a time, the weavers can use up to three hundred discontinuous wefts to weave a single piece of fabric. Depending on the design, it can take months to years to weave a single piece of Jamdani. What is interesting to note is that the motifs are made by passing the shuttle in between the wefts. Thus, the patterns are formed from the thicker threads. Jaypore's Jamdani collection of women's kurtas reflects this fine weaving technique. They are soft to the touch and safe on the skin and wearing them is like wearing Indian heritage.
