This hand
woven technique of Jamdhani, a prominent feature on Bengal handloom sarees has
universal application today by inclusion even in the traditional handloom
varieties across India such as Banarasi sarees, Venkatagiri cotton sarees, Uppada cotton sarees, Kanchi cotton sarees, Darmavaram cotton sarees etc.
Based on the
variations in the Jamdani weave, sarees can be termed as Daccai Jamdani, known
for its colourful motifs, the Shantipur Jamdhani for its soft texture, the
Fulia Tangail Jamdani for its traditional borders and the Dhonekai Jamdhani for
its colourful hues.
Another
variety of cotton handlooms in Bengal is the Kantha sari, known mainly for its
running stitch embroidery on cotton fabrics where other forms of stitches are
also used sometimes.
The cotton and gold thread work sets off a
wonderful design that enhances the look of the fabric. Murshidabad, Hoogly
Nadia and Burdwan situated in Bengal State are famous centres for Tant weaves.

The borders of
the fabric are thicker than normal since they are prone to tearing.

in colours of green, blue, grey and black.

a mean count of 100 (No. of threads per square inch of warp and weft).
