How hand woven Murshidabad silk is made
This is how it's made!
Murshidabad silk is available to order from our UK studio: https://kinetika.co.uk/product/batik-...
Kinetika worked with Crafts Council of West Bengal (CCWB) to connect with the weavers in Murshidabad, a district in West Bengal, who are following their rich history of silk making, to enable them to sell their heritage-quality, hand-woven silk to artists, silk painters, craft makers and designers, as well as to individuals in the UK.
It's perfect for silk painting and batik, and is the textile of choice for Kinetika when making flags.
