Tussar Silk Sarees

Tussar silk sarees offer a rustic, textured elegance from wild silkworms, while semi-tussar provides a softer, refined version—both ideal for breathable luxury in Daarakale collections.

Tussar (also Tassar/Kosa) originates from wild Antheraea mylitta silkworms in Jharkhand, Chhattisgarh, Odisha, and West Bengal forests, feeding on Arjun/Sal leaves—dating back 4,000 years to Indus Valley times.
Tribal communities (Santhal, Munda) harvest cocoons sustainably; semi-tussar blends wild tussar with mulberry silk for smoother finish. GI-tagged, it empowers rural economies vs. cultivated silks.

Pure tussar takes 2-15 days to weave on handlooms; natural dyes yield earthy tones, absorbing vibrant hues beautifully.

Hand-reeled from forest cocoons (reeled for long threads, spun for texture), starched, and woven with motifs like checks, stripes, Jamdani floats, or floral borders. OurGrade A tussar(authentic wild silk certification) ensures hypoallergenic, thermo-regulating fabric—cooler in summer, warm in winter.

Earthy appeal suits versatile styling:

• Festivals (Ugadi, Durga Puja): Vibrant dyed tussar with zari borders + gold jhumkas.
• Weddings/Parties: Heavy pallu semi-tussar + contrast blouse.
• Daily/Office: Neutral tones + minimal jewelry for fusion looks.
• Casual: Belted drape for brunches—breathable for Bengaluru humidity.
