Jute Handlooms of India

By L.V. Saptharishi.

India is home to almost all of the world's most important natural fibres. Amongst these fibres jute has, until now, remained the poor relation. This book traces the history of jute from its earliest use thousands of years ago to its current status as a favourite fabric for upmarket home furnishings and a potential fabric in the international world of fashion.
