Fabric Overview\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis handloom-woven eri silk fabric features a striking interplay of undyed brown eri silk and soft white silk pile stripes, creating a refined yet organic surface texture. Lightweight at 125 GSM, the fabric balances visual depth with airiness, offering a tactile contrast between matte silk and gently raised pile. The natural color palette and artisanal construction give it a quiet, architectural elegance rooted in slow textile traditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e2. How the Fabric Is Made\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe base cloth is woven from eri silk staple-spun yarns, prized for their breathable structure and softly textured surface. During handloom weaving, silk pile yarns are selectively introduced to form raised white stripes, creating a velvet-like effect integrated directly into the fabric structure. This technique produces dimensional striping without added backing, adhesives, or surface application, preserving lightness and flexibility.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e3.
