Seleng Sador, a name that resonates through the heartlands of Assam, is a traditional garment that has gracefully stood the test of time for centuries.
It is a long, rectangular piece of cloth, artfully draped over the body like a shawl, and its cultural significance is as profound as its elegant aesthetics.
Crafted from the exquisite Eri Silk, a product of the Eri silkworm, Seleng Sador boasts durability, softness, and warmth—qualities that have earned it a special place in the hearts of the Assamese people.
Seleng Sador is more than just a piece of fabric; it’s a symbol of tradition, sustainability, and fashion-forward sensibilities.
It is more than just a garment. It is a symbol of Assamese culture.
