Originally, the fabric was hand-woven with fine cotton yarns which were extracted from a special root called the Kolikanda. Referred to as ‘woven air’ owing to its sheen and transparency, the fabric was compared to the fine Muslins of Dhaka.  From the pages of history The golden period of Chanderi weaving was realized during the Mughal reign. There is an interesting story of how a Chanderi cloth was packed in the small hollow of bamboo and sent to Emperor Akbar. When the fabric was taken out and unfolded, the Emperor was surprised to find that it could cover an elephant! Well-renowned as the weaving epicentre of this wondrous fabric, the Mughals established a "karkhana" dedicated to the craft until 1677 when Emperor Aurangzeb ordered its c...
