Begumpuri Golden Yellow

Description

Begumpuri sarees are named after the place Begumpur in Hooghly district, West Bengal. Although the handloom history of this place goes back to 200-250 years, it wasn’t until dobby and jaquard were introduced to the fly shuttle looms that the current version of Begumpuri sarees were born. Begumpuri sarees are woven in bright colour combinations with a distinct extra weft serated pattern on the body and pallu. The cotton is usually 40×40 or 80×80 count with new designs being woven in 100 counts and mercerised cottons also..
