Kundan Weaving Center

We are located over in Bijoynagar, specifically in the Upparhali area. If you find the SBI Bank in Palashbari, we aren't too far from there. The sound of the looms is the first thing you notice when you walk into Kundan Weaving Center. It’s a rhythmic noise that goes on from early morning until the sun goes down. We have been doing this for quite some time now, working with threads and patterns that have been around since my grandparents' time. The space is filled with stacks of yarn and half-finished cloth. It’s not a clean or quiet place, but it is where the work happens. My hands are usually a bit rough from handling the fibers all day. We don't have a big marketing team or a fancy website. Most people just walk in because they saw our sign or heard about us from someone in the village. It takes a lot of patience to sit at the loom for hours, but it’s what we know how to do. Sometimes the power goes out and we have to wait, or the heat in the workshop gets a bit intense during the summer months. We just keep moving the shuttles back and forth. It’s honest work and it keeps us busy here in Upparhali. We aren't trying to change the world, just making good cloth for people to use. It’s a living for us.
