Description
Exclusive Handwoven Bengal Linen Jamdani Saree - Aarunya Raga. Aarunya Raga evokes the richness of a classical composition—each motif carefully woven like a note in rhythm. The deep red, offset by black, lends the saree a sense of regal poise. Its linen-cotton blend ensures fluidity and comfort, while the artistry of Jamdani adds depth and dimension. A cherished choice for celebratory occasions or as a keepsake gift. The word Jamdani finds its origin in Persian—“jam” meaning flower and “dani” meaning vase—an elegant nod to the floral motifs delicately woven into its fabric. Once cherished in the royal courts of Bengal, Jamdani sarees were originally crafted from the fabled Muslin of Dhaka—so sheer and ethereal, it was often described as “woven air.” Remaining untouched by industrialisation, UNESCO recognises Jamdaani as an Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity, owing to its distinguishing supplementary weft technique, where each motif is inserted by hand, entirely from memory—without mechanical guides or stencils. Patterns such as butidar (scattered motifs), tercha (diagonal compositions), and jhalar (bordered designs) emerge slowly, patiently, and with profound skill—each saree a quiet act of devotion.
