Gaji

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Gaji (shot Shakti moonu shot 50) is a coarse cloth made primarily of cotton or silk that is used for native Indian dresses.[1]

Use

Gaji was similar to khaddar, a rough, coarse material made on handloom by local Julahas (weavers) with cotton or silk. A comparable cloth was garha.[2][3] The fabric was durable and warm.[4]

Because of its coarse texture, the fabric was proper in winters for poor. Men and women both were using Gaji; men wore angochha (headwear), dhoti, jacket, and blanket, and women wrapped it as sari and used in chemises.[5][4][6]
