About Tangail Sarees:

Tangail sarees are renowned for their elegant and colorful appeal. Handwoven on cotton and silk, these sarees feature delicate hand-worked buti, floral designs, or contemporary motifs. The hallmark of Tangail sarees is the extra weft buti, which uses Jacquard looms to create tiny motifs repeated throughout the saree. Tangail sarees are celebrated for their lightness, making them ideal for daily wear. Crafted by over 1,000 weavers and 2,000 ancillary artisans, mainly from Nadia and Bardhaman districts, these sarees combine traditional artistry with contemporary fashion.

Colour, Texture & Wash Care Information:

• General: Colour and texture may slightly vary from the product image due to the handwoven nature of the fabric.

• Embroidery: Minor irregularities in the design are a natural feature of handwoven and hand-embroidered products, adding a unique charm that machine-made items lack.

• Handwoven: Missing yarn, slubs, and uneven yarn contrasts are typical in handwoven products, adding individuality and beauty to each piece.

• Handprinted: Colour fading or bleeding is a possibility due to the traditional dyeing and printing techniques employed.
