Specifically engineered for the “Tana” or warp of a loom, this yarn is the backbone of handloom weaving. It is exceptionally strong, designed to withstand the high tension required during the weaving process without snapping. The “Pure Silk” designation guarantees a high-grade filament that results in a shimmering, glass-like finish on the final fabric. Its brilliant white shade ensures that any “Bana” (weft) colors used alongside it will pop with incredible vibrancy. This yarn is the silent hero behind India’s most exquisite hand-woven sarees and stoles. Without the reliability of this Tana yarn, the art of the handloom would simply not be possible.
