Baluchari silk saree – pride of Bengal


Baluchar is a small village in Murshidabad district of West Bengal. It is famous for the Baluchari sarees with artistic designs and traditional arts on the fabrics. The artistic designs of Baluchari Sarees mostly depict mythological stories, similar to that commonly found in the temples of Bishnupur and Bankura of West Bengal. The fabric of Baluchari saree is very fine and transparent.

Baluchari Sarees are made from silk. Silk brocade designs suited to the base colour, are decorated with attractive motifs. The appeal of the Baluchari Saree lies in its colour harmony and not contrast, of the pattern colours with the colour of the body fabric. Colours preferred are red, green, yellow, blue and their shades. Other colours are also fast seeking attention.     

The Pallav or Pallu of the Baluchari Saree is adorned by mythological stories depicted on the walls of the terra cotta temples that the Malla rulers had built and are located in present day Bengal.

Baluchari Sarees are preferred as soft and comfortable wear, for their fine weave and stylish looks.

Some popular themes of today as flower bunches, animals, court scenes of an earlier era, boat etc. adorning the Baluchari Saree make them most attractive and apt  for a variety of occasions; be it wedding ceremonies, parties, grand functions, social gatherings or as corporate wear.
