Weaving by hand allows much more freedom of design than mechanized weaving. Machine looms are limited to a maximum of 8 yarn colors in a fabric design whereas a handloom weaver can use as many different colors of yarn as desired. This enables us to create endless shade variations and achieve real depth of color in a cloth

There are two similarities between hand carved and painted decoys and our single weaver handloom Madras. One, there is a unique quality of singularity about a thing made from start to finish by an individual pair of hands. And two, both decoys and Madras are seen extensively in the eastern United States

Origin

Original Madras Trading Company is a family business with a checkered past. My grandfather established the company when he arrived in New York City from Madras in the early 70’s with a trunk full of Madras checks and other Indian woven textiles. Over time he established our office on 38th Street in the garment district with views of the Empire State Building. Today we still trade from those same offices and continue to supply many of the most renowned names in American clothing. While continuing our business of making and supplying both fabrics and garments from southern India to brands around the world through our New York office, we have started a new project making a range of clothing using exclusively hand woven cloth. True to the spirit of my grandfather, our handloom project is a way to remind people of the rich origin story of Madras textiles and their deep ties to both the American and Indian societies and their two contrasting yet complementary cultures.
