Tussar Silk
Tussar Silk is a type of silk produced from the cocoons of Tussar silkworms, primarily found in India. Unlike the more common mulberry silk, Tussar silk is known for its rich texture and natural golden color, which comes from the wild silkworms that feed on various trees. This silk is often used in traditional garments and textiles, making it popular for sarees and scarves.
The production of Tussar silk is an eco-friendly process, as it involves wild silkworms that thrive in their natural habitat. Artisans often weave Tussar silk into intricate patterns, showcasing the craftsmanship of local weavers. Its unique qualities and sustainable production make Tussar silk a cherished material in the textile industry.
