This scarf is a calming teal color, featuring delicate white motifs that exemplify the Jamdani style.
The design includes subtle horizontal stripes, and the fabric's lightweight nature ensures comfort. The fringed edges add an elegant touch, making it a stylish and sustainable choice.
Jamdani is distinguished by its labor-intensive process of adding supplementary weft threads in addition to the standard weft. This creates the ornate motifs that appear to float on the surface of the fabric, giving Jamdani its distinctive, ethereal quality. The technique was historically known as Dhakai, named after the city of Dhaka in Bangladesh, which was the hub for its production.
Due to the time and skill required to produce Jamdani, it is considered one of the most advanced hand weaving techniques in the world and has been declared an Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity by UNESCO.
