Скачать или смотреть Handloom magic with Muga Silk Sarees made by Women Artisans of Manipur. 🌼

In Manipur it is the Meitei (Manipuri) women, who traditionally took up weaving as part of everyday living. The art is introduced to girls at a young age, but in some Meitei clans it is taken up extensively by married women, while in other clans it is practiced only by unmarried girls.

While the Moirang Phee is now woven throughout the state, it was originally woven in the Moirang village in Manipur, 'Phee’ means cloth in Meitei. Weaving of the saree was derived as an extension of the wrap ‘Innaphi’ that is paired with the traditional sarong ‘Phanek.’ It takes 2 skilled artisans to simultaneously weave a saree over 25-30 days, with intricate extra weft motifs and the distinct temple border designs.
