Gachhi Tussar

Gachhi tussar is another name for Desi tussar. It is tussar yarn that has been manually reeled from a healthy cocoon; derived from the cocoons of the Antheraea or Eri silk moth. Cocoons are collected by the tribal communities especially ladies. This opulent silky yarn is renowned for its vivid hues, delicate texture, and subtle sheen. In terms of beauty and elegance, plain Gachhi tussar saris are unique. The speciality of these saris is the very soft dense texture as the cocoons are collected from the forests of Chhattisgarh and Jharkhand states.
