Santipur weavers use fine cotton yarn ranging from 60s to 100s in both warp and weft to create these intricate jacquard patterns. Designs such as Ganga-Jamuna, Benkipar, Bhomra, Rajmahal, and others are popular motifs, all inspired by nature.

A Santipuri saree takes about 2-3 days to complete, with each saree showcasing exceptional craftsmanship.
