This industry was established in Nepal in 1974 when the United States imposed country-specific quotas on more advanced countries and flourished with Nepal’s embrace of economic liberalisation in the 1990s. Post 2000 however, it faced two severe crises: the looming 2004 expiration of the US quota regime which would end the preferential treatment of Nepalese garments in international trade; and the local Maoist insurgency imposed serious labour and supply chain hurdles to its operations.

Özet Bu çalışmada geleneksel rezerve boyalı tekstiller iki grupta sınıflandırılmış ve uygulama teknikleri detaylı olarak açıklanmıştır. Bunlardan ilki olan fiziksel rezerve boyama tekniklerinde, kumaş yüzeyine ya da ipliğine (ikat) fiziksel yolla yapılan bağlama, sıkıştırma, bükme ve dikiş gibi yöntemler kullanılmaktadır. İkincisinde ise, kumaş yüzeyi bölgesel olarak balmumu, kil, nişasta ya da mısır unu gibi bir rezerve maddesi kullanılarak kapatılır. Bu makalede, rezerve boyama teknikleri iki farklı açıdan incelemektedir. Rezerve boyama teknikleri dünya genelinde pek çok kültürde görülen bir desenlendirme yöntemidir. Ancak coğrafyalara göre kumaşlar, rezerve maddeleri ve uygulama yöntemleri değişmektedir. Bu durum bir tekniğin birden fazla isimle anılmasına sebep olmaktadır. Bu nedenle bu makalede her bir teknik, farklı bölgelerdeki yerel isimleri ve uluslararası genel adlarıyla birlikte verilmektedir. Ayrıca, Kuzey Amerika’da 1960’lı yıllarda Hippi akımı gibi gençlik hareketlerinin simgeleri olarak önem kazanan bu desenlendirme yöntemlerinin geleneksel kullanımlarından modern yaşamın simgelerine dönüşümü ve bugünün kumaş endüstrisindeki yerleri değerlendirilmektedir.

Textiles are formed by weaving, knitting, crocheting, knotting and pressing fibers together. Textile Museum is that specialized category of museum which primarily preserves different types of textile and textile products. Indian textile enjoys a rich heritage and the origin of textiles in India traces back to the Indus valley Civilization where people used homespun cotton for weaving their clothes. Rigveda, the earliest of the Veda contains the literary information about textiles and it refers to weaving. Ramayana and Mahabharata, the eminent Indian epics depict the existence of wide variety of fabrics in ancient India. These epics refer both to rich and stylized garment worn by the aristocrats and ordinary simple clothes worn by the common people. The contemporary Indian textile not only reflects the splendid past but also cater to the requirements of the modern times.

KEYWORDS :BLOCK PRINT, HANDLOOM WEAVING, ANCIENT TIME, IKAT, RESIST PRINTING INTRODUCTION India has been very famous for its handicrafts and textile since very long, which is proved by many archaeological evidence. Very first evidence found were traces of purple dye at Mohenjo-Daro, which proves that cotton was spun and woven in India as early as 3000 B.C. In 300 B.C. Chanakya mentions that, textile was very important in internal and external trade. Even he mentioned in “Arthashastra“important centres for weavingcotton, silk and woollen cloth.The material used in spinning process were wool (urna), cotton (karpasa), hemp (tula) and flax (kusum).In that period mainly weaving was done by women and their wages dependedupon the thickness of yarn. During 100 A.D. Indian textiles became very popular because of its bright colours, among the Persians. Even Indian muslin was very famous in Rome with the name “nebula”, “gangetika”,and “venti”. Silk was also an exported product to Rome but raw material was imported from china.
