India is the land of beautiful textiles; we have a rich heritage of different fabrics and skills that have bedazzled the world around us. Every state boasts of a specific type of textile or method of creating immemorable and traditional designs. We have the Pashmina from Jammu and Kashmir, Banarasi from Uttar Pradesh, Bandhani from Rajasthan, Patola from Gujarat and Kanjivaram Sarees from Kanchipuram. Just like these handlooms and traditional techniques of dyeing exist in our states, there is one more powerful handloom which originates from Madhya Pradesh. This is the Chanderi fabric. Chanderi sarees are mainly of 2 types, and we have the chanderi silk sarees and the chanderi cotton sarees. Both of these come from the chanderi handloom. A pure chanderi saree is reminiscent of the era of Maharajas and royalty. A beautiful chanderi saree saree can make heads turn because it is so different from its heavier counterparts like the Banarasi and Kanjivaram . The chanderi saree originates from a small place called Chanderi in Madhya Pradesh. This fabric is characterized by glossy transparency, its sheer feel and is lightweight. In a way, the chanderi saree finds a companion in the organza silk.
The chanderi fabric is one of the most resplendent options a bride can choose for her wedding. In fact, a pure chanderi saree in silk, in the color red, will be one of the best options that she can go for. A chanderi saree is unique and different and will afford her easy mobility as well. The benefits of wearing a chanderi saree are both practical and aesthetic.

Red is considered an auspicious color in Hindu traditions and many other traditions as well. The color red is symbolic of many things, especially during weddings. The color symbolizes love, strength and a commitment to your partner. The color is also symbolic of the Goddess Durga, and a bride is said to embody the strength and aura of the goddess herself. For this reason, even red henna is applied to hands to symbolize a transition into married life. Combining the power of red with the beauty of Chanderi is one of the best ways to celebrate our wedding nuptials. A bride looks simply gorgeous in red and embodies the goddess herself; here, we have three timeless pieces which will take your wedding festivities to the next level. Let’s go:
