Jamdani
is a
kind
of fine
cloth
made
in Bangladesh.
Though
mostly
used
for
saris,
Jamdani
is also
used
for
scarves,
handkerchiefs
etc.
Jamdani
is believed
to be
a fusion
of the
ancient
cloth-making
techniques
of Bengal
(perhaps
2000
years
old)
with
the
Middle
Eastern
influence
of muslin
brought
by the
Muslims
starting
from
the
1300s.
