Mashru weaving originated to solve a religious requirement. The outside surface is silk (for shine) while the inside is cotton (touching skin). Certain communities prohibit silk against skin, so Mashru provides the look of silk with a cotton lining.

Weavers use a satin weave structure with silk warp on the face and cotton weft on the reverse. The two layers are woven simultaneously on pit looms. The result is a fabric with silk sheen outside and cotton comfort inside.

Handloom fabric has a slightly uneven texture when you run your fingers along it. The selvedge edges look different from machine-woven ones. The weave carries a softness that powerlooms cannot replicate.

A human hand operates the loom. Thread tension, shuttle speed, and pedal pressure vary naturally. These small irregularities are proof of handloom origin. not defects.

Hand wash in cold water with mild detergent for the first few washes. Avoid wringing. gently squeeze and dry flat in shade. The fabric softens beautifully with each wash.

Mashru has a satin-smooth silk face and a soft cotton back. It feels cool against skin thanks to the cotton lining. The dual texture gives it a distinct, comfortable weight.

Dry clean is safest for Mashru Silk. If hand washing, use cold water and a mild silk-specific detergent. Never wring. Roll in a towel to absorb moisture, then dry flat in shade.

Mashru Silk works across seasons. It feels cool in summer and retains warmth in winter. The natural temperature regulation of silk makes it comfortable year-round in Indian climates.

With proper care, Mashru Silk products last for years. The fibre is naturally strong. Avoid rough handling, direct sun, and chemical detergents. Gentle care keeps it looking fresh long-term.

Silk production is labour-intensive. from rearing silkworms to reeling the thread. Mashru Silk involves additional regional techniques that add time and skill. The price reflects the material and the maker's effort.
