Gopalpur village is famous for producing Tussar fabrics. It is in Jajpur District in the Indian state of Odisha. Gopalpur is known for its production of different tussar fabrics like sarees, dupattas, stoles, dhoti- joda, running material, scarves etc. The unique feature of Gopalpur craft is their use of hand spun and hand reeled yarns which is done mostly by female artisans of the family. They tie and dye the yarn to create the temple motifs. The Ikat in Gopalpur is woven in majority of Tussar Saree with a classic temple motif border and traditional Sambalpuri bandha/ikat pallu.

Special Design

Tussar Silk is more textured than mulberry silk. The dull natural texture works as a suitable fabric for painting, embroidery and also hand block motifs. The fabric is also cooler than the other silk varieties and is a lot more porous for which Tussar Saree is widely accepted in India as well as other warmer parts of the world. This is also known as Kosa Silk. It is valued for its rich texture, natural colour and comfort wear.
