      Origin Of Chanderi Handloom Saree

      Chanderi Sarees are thought to have been invented by the handloom weavers of Chanderi, a small town in Madhya Pradesh. Initially, Muslim weavers dominated the craft until 1350, when Koshti weavers from Jhansi migrated to Chanderi and transformed the fabric into something much more illustrious and fashionable. By the 17th century, Chanderi town had become a major centre for Chanderi textiles, thanks to royal patronage from the Mughals and other rulers. 

      Although Chanderi fabric was mentioned as early as the Vedic period, it was during the Mughal era that the technique of Chanderi weaving reached its pinnacle. Several Mughal sources state that Chanderi fabric was widely utilized in the Mughal courts to produce ceremonial robes and other ensembles. The Scindia royal family also supported the traditional craft, which led to the resurgence of Chanderi weaving in 1910. During this period, motifs made in gold threads were introduced into Chanderi weaving to make it appear more opulent. 

      However, demand for Chanderi fabric dropped throughout the 1920s as British rulers imported cheaper cloth, inflicting a severe blow to the exquisite handspun Chanderi fabric. Fortunately, in recent years, the popularity of wearing traditional Chanderi sarees has grown due to the support of the country’s leading designers and celebrities.
