A
loom is a device by which cloth is woven. Weaving involves a process by which a
pattern or lattice framework is created by warp or longitudinal threads,
tightly stretched across a frame or loom, intermeshed with lateral threads or
weft. Weaving on different types of handlooms or devices operated by hand
making use of natural fibre yarns such as silk, cotton, jute, linen or
artificial or man-made fibres such as georgette, chiffon, crepe silk results in
the creation of the handloom fabric.
Cotton,
silk, Sico, art silk and other fabric yarns are used to weave handlooms.
Handlooms are adorned by prints through traditional block, bagru, dabu, batik
and other traditional styles of printing. They have patterns or motifs done by
hand through painting or embroidery or patch work with decorative items like
kundan, mirror work, beads, shells and fancy glitter work. Colours that are
used could be natural or vegetable dyes or artificial man-made chemical dyes.
Handloom weaving is done across the length and breadth of the country but there
are locations which are still continuing with traditional methods of weaving,
dyeing, adorning and printing like Pochampally, Dharmavaram, Narayanpet,
Uppada, Gadwal, Chettinad, Arani, Bangalore, Mysore, Coimbatore, Madurai,
Dharwad, Kerala, Chanderi, Benaras, Kolkata, Sambalpur, Bomkai, Baluchari,
Nagaland, Assam, Meghalaya, Rajkot, Patan and some others.
Handlooms
have their undisputed niche in the world of fabrics. Special and ever sought
after, handlooms are dedicated weaves akin to an act of devotion, a fine
display of art and craftsmanship. Neither are sarees identical, nor patterns
blindly replicated, no design cliché nor motifs repeated is the special
characteristic of Indian handlooms.
From
coarse and average to fine and superfine thread counts, handloom varieties are
available at distinct locations in most states of the country. You could have
plain to lightly adorned sarees or sarees with a lot of exquisite adornments
like mirror work, kundan work, badla work, beads, sequins, etc. There could be
simple single colour borders to attractive multi-colour ones, plain zari
borders or heavily embroidered and adorned patch borders. Pallus or end pieces
could have floral block prints, geometrical patterns, fancy abstract designs or
a healthy mix of these or some other attractive feature. The use of organic
dyes, a good choice of vibrant colour combinations, hand painting, tribal art,
batik, warli paintings, thematic representations of folklore and the epics or other
popular themes through tribal art, kalamkari and a lot more, contribute to the
variety and ensure continued interest of the market in handlooms.
Handlooms have the greatest advantage of each individual fabric item getting the undivided attention of the weaver. Sitting at the loom, he translates mental images of his design through the loom or looms that he operates by hand. The handloom magic is evident from the fine count weaves, the typical enchanting designs, elaborate
