Description
Chunari (also known as Chunri, Chundari, or Bandhani) is a traditional tie-dye textile art deeply rooted in the culture of South Asia, particularly in Abbas Nagar town. The word is derived from the Hindi word Chunari, meaning a cloth covering or scarf.
It is most famous for its vibrant colors and intricate patterns of tiny dots, which are created through a meticulous process of tying and dyeing.
The Craftsmanship (How it’s Made)
The making of Chunari is a labor-intensive art form that has been passed down through generations:
Tying (Bandhej): Skilled artisans pinch small portions of fabric (usually cotton, silk, or chiffon) and tie them tightly with thread to form specific patterns. These knots act as a “resist,” preventing dye from reaching those spots.
Dyeing: The fabric is dipped into vats of brilliant colors. Traditional colors include Red (for marriage), Yellow (for spring/childbirth), and Green (for fertility).
The Reveal: Once dried, the knots are carefully unpicked to reveal white or light- colored “dots” that form geometric or floral designs.
Common Styles & Uses
Chunari is incredibly versatile and appears in various forms of ethnic wear:
Dupattas & Scarves: The most iconic use. A vibrant Chunari dupatta is often paired with plain white or solid-colored Salwar Kameez to provide a “pop” of color.

Cultural Significance
Symbol of Blessings: In many communities, gifting a Chunari is a sign of good fortune. Brides often wear red Chunari veils during their wedding rituals.
Regional Identity: While the technique is similar, patterns vary by region-Multan and Bahawalpur (Pakistan) and Kutch and Rajasthan (India) are world-renowned for their specific style.
