The History of Maheshwar Weaves

A Centre For Prime Handloom Weaving Since The 5th Century, Maheshwar, An Ancient Town On The Banks Of Narmada, Was Originally The Capital Of The Malwas During The Maratha Holkar Reign Till January 1818, And Enjoyed A Considerably Elevated Status In Terms Of Royal Interests. It Was This Encouragement By The Royal Family That The Maheshwari Saree Came Into Being.

Legend Has It That Rani Ahilya Bai Holkar Employed A Special Team Of Craftsmen From Surat And Malwa To Design An Exclusive Nine Yard Saree That Could Be Gifted To Her Relatives And Guests Who Visited The Palace. With The First Saree Conceived And Designed By Her Highness Herself, Maheshwari Sarees Went On To Become A Huge Hit In The Royal And Aristocratic Circle. Following This, The Production Of Maheshwari Sarees Caught Up, And These Graceful Sarees Soon Started Becoming Popular With Women Of All Ages. Today, This Beautiful Textile Is One Of The Best Sellers In Both National And International Markets!
