Hand painted Tussar Silk Madhubani shawl / dupatta

This is a beautiful Madhubani shawl in excellent condition. Barely used. Has borders painted on both ends/ as well as fringes. I couldn’t get the whole thing in one frame as it’s very long, but the border visible in the first picture is similar to the one on the other end. No two pieces are alike, so you’ll have a unique garment no one else has. Madhubani painting or Mithila painting is a style practiced in the Mithila region of Indian State of Bihar. Painting is done with fingers, twigs, brushes, nib-pens, and matchsticks, using natural dyes and pigments, and is characterized by eye-catching geometrical patterns. Every piece is unique. FABRIC: Tussar Silk , also often referred to as ‘Wild Silk, is an exquisite thread obtained from a wide winged moth that is yellowish-brown in colour. Tussar silk is a lot more textured than any other variety of Silk. The fabric is also cooler than the other varieties and is a lot more porous, therefore, breathable.
