Jamdani is a traditional handloom weaving technique that originated in Bengal, which includes present-day Bangladesh and the Indian states of West Bengal and Odisha. It is known for its intricate geometric or floral motifs created by supplementary weft technique, where additional weft threads are woven into the fabric to create the design. Jamdani is typically woven using fine cotton yarns, resulting in a lightweight and airy fabric with a distinctive texture. Cotton Jamdani fabric is prized for its softness, breathability, and comfort, making it suitable for hot and humid climates. It is often worn for festive occasions, weddings, and other special events, as well as for everyday wear.
