Dark Yellow Pure Desi Tussar Saree with Ikat Pallu

Amongst all the types of silk known, tussar distinguishes itself with its unique charm. Its rich texture and natural gold color make it similar to a natural treasure which is passed on as an inheritance to the women of the household. Tussar silk is considered more textured than cultivated Bombyx or mulberry silk, but it has shorter fibers, which makes it less durable. It has a dull, gold sheen. As most of the cocoons are collected from the forest, it is considered by many as a forest product.
