Assamese silk weaving

HERITAGE IN EVERY THREAD

Know Your Silk

Four extraordinary silks. Four distinct stories.

Assam is home to some of the world’s most extraordinary silks. At ElenSerica, each fabric carries a unique story — rooted in nature, nurtured by hand and cherished for generations.

01 — THE CLASSIC

Mulberry Silk (Paat)

Pure Mulberry Silk, known in Assam as Paat Silk, is one of the finest and most elegant silks in the world. Handwoven by skilled Assamese artisans, this luxurious fabric is made from silk produced by silkworms that feed exclusively on mulberry leaves, giving the silk its naturally smooth texture, soft feel, and graceful sheen.

Celebrated for its lightweight comfort, durability, and natural ivory-white glow, Paat silk reflects the rich heritage of Assam’s centuries-old handloom tradition. The fabric drapes beautifully and becomes even softer with time, making it perfect for timeless garments like the Mekhela Chador.

Every piece of Paat silk carries the artistry of traditional Assamese weaving, blending heritage, purity, and luxury into a fabric that is both elegant and enduring.
