Description

Chettinad is a type of Kandangi Handloom woven by the Nagarathar, Chettiyar and Devanga communities, in the town of Karaikudi. A distinguishing trait of Chettinad handloom weaves is the strikingly contrasting color combinations and big borders .Traditionally, earthy color palette was used due to the easy availability of natural dyes like mancatti (Indian madder) and manjal (turmeric).
