Let us find out more about Chanderi sarees, and the carefully curated collection by Ayush Kejriwal.

Chanderi fabric has its roots back in the Indian town of Madhya Pradesh known as Chanderi. It’s situated in the Vindhyan ranges that lies close to the Betwa river. The historical heritage of Chanderi fabric flows from this town and it is also known as the town of looms.

History of the Chanderi Saree

During the periods of the Mughals the art of weaving Chanderi sarees was preserved by the weaver’s community. There were rulers like Akbar and Maharani of Baroda who patronised the art of Chanderi. In those days Chanderi was also known as “woven air” due to it's lightweight and semi-transparent appearance.

Unfortunately, there was a decline seen in the Chanderi weaving and craft during the colonial times as industrialisation came into England and the factory-made cheap fabric replaced the handloom industry. Thankfully, the craft is now gaining popularity and being explored for its beauty. 

Process of weaving Chanderi

The Chanderi fabric is made from a weaving technique involving a length wise push called tana and breath wise pull called bana. This process continues back and forth. The designs on the Chanderi fabric are made with needles. In the past a minimum of two weavers were needed to work together to make one Chanderi saree but later the Fly shuttle loom was introduced which made the process a little simpler for the weavers. Ayush Kejriwal works with local weavers and artists to create beautiful, unique, handwoven chanderi silk sarees sustainably, helping in keeping alive this age-old skill and providing a livelihood for the skilled artists.
