The words "Jam" (meaning flower) and "Dani" (meaning vase) came together to form the name Jamdani, popular with every saree lover. The name alludes to the magnificent flower arrangements that embellish these stunning sarees. Around this time, cotton, cotton silk, and pure mulberry silk were among the materials used in Matka Jamdani's handwoven sarees. The Jamdani weave is a type of "extra-weft" weaving that was first produced from Karpas cotton cultivated in the Brahmaputra hinterland. In addition to the regular weft that binds the warp threads together, each unique motif is made by weaving additional or different weft threads into the warp. The procedure involves a lot of time, energy, and expertise. Jamdani is woven using tiny looms threaded with colourful gold, or silver threads, much like tapestry art.
A coarse handloom fabric called Matka Silk is created by weaving leftover Mulberry Silk(Bombyx Mori) without removing the gum(sericin) portion. The spinning is done in West Bengal's Malda and Murshidabad districts, although the majority of it originates from the states of Karnataka and Kashmir. Jamdani stands out from other handloom items due to the richness of its themes and the brilliant colours used in its creations. Since the designs are made using the discontinuous weft technique directly on the loom, weaving Jamdani by hand consumes a lot of patience and exertion. A highly experienced weaver weaves a beautiful Jamdani saree over the course of around eight to twelve months. The Matka Jamdani saree is distinctive since each one is explicitly produced with a subtle tone that gives the fabric its additional edge.
