Framed by a golden border, this dark brown shawl celebrates the textile traditions of Bhagalpur. Uvais presents a soft shawl hand-woven with two types of silk, one of which is Tussar, which requires drying the cocoons to soften and reel the silk. The other is Eri, a silk that is heavier and appears like a long filament, and can be obtained from a live cocoon.
