  • Warp 'N Weft Weaving 23 Years
    Warp ‘n Weft Weaving 23 years by Sagrika Rai The Handloom industry in India is a timeless facet of the rich cultural heritage of India. Importantly as an economic activity, the handloom sector occupies a place next only to agriculture in providing livelihood to the people. The amalgam of art and craft present in Indian handlooms along with their sheer commercial bent makes it an important industry in India. But the onset of power-looms ended up adversely affecting the weaver community. The livelihood of tens of thousands of weavers and skilled craftsmen in the handloom sector was made more difficult due to this new technology. This was my drive to initiate Warp ‘n Weft in 1997 and overcome these challenges by recognizing the superior craftmanship of the hand and encouraging such weavers and their families to produce their fabrics by redefining their treasured hand-weaving skills. Today ‘handloom’ is the buzz word and ‘Vocal and Local’ is now a movement. That said production houses continue to churn out fabrics on power-looms and the market is burgeoning with cheaper replicas in polyester yarns in the name of the ‘Handloom Banarasi’. I have always steered clear of this path and refused to cut corners. There are days when I am saddened by my personal interaction with customers who come to Warp ‘n Weft to match fabrics to a dupatta, get a blouse styled to a saree or talk boastfully of a Banarasi lehenga that they purchased at the price of an anti-aging cream; bought at the numerous new Banarasi brands in town or dare I say, even at some reputed multi brand stores.
