About Mysore Silk Sarees

Mysore silk comes from the royal city of Mysore (Mysuru) in Karnataka. Its roots go back to the Wodeyar kings, who set up a silk weaving factory in Mysore in 1912.

The silk yarn is twisted tightly before weaving. This gives Mysore silk its soft crepe texture and smooth fall. The look is simple, with one main body colour and a slim gold zari border.

Pure Mysore Silk Sarees: How to Identify an Original

  • Silk Mark label: It confirms the saree is pure silk. All RmKV Mysore silk sarees carry it.
  • Feel: Pure silk feels smooth and cool, with a soft sheen. A very bright shine can mean synthetic fibre.
  • Crepe texture: Run your hand over the fabric. You should feel a fine, grainy surface.
  • Burn test: A silk thread burns slowly, smells like burnt hair and leaves soft ash.
  • Zari: Good zari is woven into the fabric. It does not peel or turn black quickly.
