Wine Pink Natural Stripe Rekha Handspun Tussar Silk Dupatta

A handspun tussar silk dupatta woven on a traditional handloom in Odisha, with Rekha patterning worked in extra weft across the full length. The motif is placed by hand, row by row, using the jala supplementary weft technique not printed or embroidered after weaving.

Tussar silk comes from wild Antheraea mylitta moths that feed on arjun and asan trees in Odisha's forests. The yarn is handspun before it reaches the loom. The result is a fabric with natural warmth, slight texture, and a matte finish that no mill-spun silk replicates.
