About Me: Also known as Endi or Errandi, Eri is a multivoltine silk spun from open-ended cocoons, unlike other varieties of silk. Eri silk is the product of the domesticated silkworm, Philosamia Ricini that feeds mainly on castor leaves. Ericulture is a household activity practiced mainly for protein rich pupae, a delicacy for the tribal. Resultantly, the Eri cocoons are open-mouthed and are spun.

The Story: Eco Tasar uses handmade yarn to produce customized goods, thereby helping the sustenance of women making a living by spinning and reeling silk yarn. “Tussar” is a natural silk and its silkworms are reared on live trees as they do not feed on plucked leaves. It is a forest based activity and its exposure to nature results in it’s truly multi tonal look which can never be duplicated by manmade fabric . This makes it a truly wild silk much sought after by connoisseurs. The Silk Accessories are made by a collaborative venture of tribal silkworm rearers, poor rural women yarn makers and handloom weavers in the hinterlands of India. Each item’s creation is a source of livelihood and hope for a better future for thousands of women and tribal who otherwise have no wage opportunity in their remote villages and are often forced to migrate to cities in search of a living as many of them are marginal farmers and income from agriculture is not sufficient to last the whole year.
