What Is Tussar Silk?
Tussar silk, also known as Tasar silk, is a type of silk traditionally produced from wild or semi-domesticated silkworms associated with several regions of India.
Compared with highly uniform silk fabrics, Tussar is often recognized for its natural texture, characteristic slubs, earthy appearance and distinctive surface character.
These qualities make Tussar silk particularly interesting for designers and apparel brands looking for fabrics with a more organic and artisanal appearance.
The exact appearance, texture, weight and performance of Tussar fabric can vary depending on the silk source, yarn, weaving method and finishing process.
Tussar Silk Fabric from India
India has a long history of producing and using Tussar silk textiles.
Different Indian regions have developed their own traditions around silk production, spinning, weaving and finishing. Bhagalpur in Bihar is particularly associated with silk weaving and has a strong textile heritage.
Weaveify operates from Bhagalpur and connects this regional textile ecosystem with contemporary apparel and fashion requirements.
For international buyers, sourcing Tussar silk from India can provide access to a distinctive natural silk textile with strong Indian craftsmanship and cultural character.
