About Tussar Ghicha Silk

Tussar silk, also known as “Kosa silk,” is a type of silk fabric produced from the silk obtained from several species of silk worms, primarily the larvae of the silk moth Antheraea mylitta. This variety of silk is known for its rich texture, natural gold sheen, and durability. Here are some key characteristics and aspects of Tussar silk. This silk is considered more environmentally friendly compared to some other silk varieties because the caterpillars are not bred in captivity. They are allowed to hatch and grow in their natural habitat, contributing to a more sustainable silk production process.

Tussar silk’s unique texture and appearance make it a popular choice for individuals seeking a natural and luxurious fabric with a distinctive look. The traditional craftsmanship involved in its production also adds to its cultural significance.  It is relatively durable and can withstand wear and tear. The coarse texture adds to its strength, making it suitable for a variety of applications, including sarees, scarves, and other garments.

The undyed nature of Ghicha silk not only highlights the authenticity of the fabric but also aligns with the preference for natural and organic materials. The irregularities and imperfections in the weave, along with the natural golden sheen, contribute to the unique and rustic charm of Ghicha silk.
