Bhagalpur in Bihar is the home of tussar silk: weavers in Champanagar and Nathnagar sell sarees and fabric close to the loom, and Variety Chowk is the main market.
Bhagalpur is known for tussar silk, which has a natural golden shine and a textured feel, woven into sarees, stoles and fabric. Weavers in Champanagar and Nathnagar sell sarees and fabric close to the loom, so silk shops and designers can deal directly with makers. Variety Chowk is the main market for silk, sarees and cloth. Markets run Monday to Saturday, about 10 AM to 7 PM. Bhagalpur is linked by train to Patna and Kolkata.
For pure silk, ask for Silk Mark certification.
