INTRODUCTION OF HIMROO

Hand woven 'Himroo' material is a traditional Aurangabad speciality. Himroo may be woven with silk, wool, cotton or jari (silver golden thread). Traditionally, it was only. woven in cotton (wrap) and silk (weft). It was a cheaper alternative for kimkhab, the more lavish brocade of silk and gold thread woven for royalty in 14th century. The weaves incorporate plain lines woven in different patterns geometrical designs, designs inspired by nature, floral motifs, motifs from the paintings of Ajanta Caves, carvings from Ellora Caves, Bibi-ka-Maqbara and Taj Mahal.


During the reign of Mohammad Tughlag, when he shifted his capital from Delhi to Daulatabad, an entire generation of craftsmen followed him during his adventurous journey. When Tughlag decided to shift the capital back to Delhi, most craftsmen stayed back. Many of these weavers and craftsmen continued to supply textile products such as stoles, shawls and other linens to the royal families. Some Historian believe that Himroo weaving has roots in Persia, while many local historians seem to have a different view & suggest that Himroo has very little or no Persian influence. Kings and Queen during the medieval era had a huge stock of Himroo collections stashed away in their wardrobes. Renowned traveler Marco Polo was gifted a Himroo Shawl during his visit in the Deccan region. Marco Polo writes in his memoirs "It is as fine as a spider's web and Kings and Queens of any country will take pride in wearing it". According to the Textiles Association of India, Himroo was endorsed by the Nizam and Mughal nobility.
