Eri silk, also known as ahimsa silk, is a unique variety of peace silk produced by the domesticated silkworm Samia ricini. The name Eri comes from era, the Assamese word for castor, as the silkworms feed on castor leaves. What makes Eri truly special is its ethical process — the silk is extracted without harming the silkworm, embodying the principle of ahimsa (non-violence in Sanskrit). This makes it a cruelty-free, sustainable choice loved by those who value both beauty and conscience.
Soft, breathable, and with a graceful drape, Eri silk sarees add an elegant note to any wardrobe. This handwoven piece is naturally dyed, with intricate motifs woven entirely in Eri silk, reflecting the heritage craftsmanship of Assam’s weaving heartland, Sualkuchi.
