HIMROO

Himroo is yet another distinctive craft of making a luxurious fabric. The art originated in Aurangabad. The fabric has a solid bright colored cotton base with floral deigns and an extra silk weave. It gives us the impression of Jamaiwar style of weaving introduced into the country by the Mughals.

The material made into stoles, gowns and furnishings was once used as the dress material by the nobles. Today, Himroo fabrics are mostly used for shawls, women's coats, mufflers and table covers.
