SILK MARK EXPO 2009.......GUWAHATI
ONE OF MY VERY DEAR FRIEND ASKED ME TO JOIN HER IN SHOPPING ,SHE IS A DIE HARD SILK FAN...SO THIS EXPO WAS THE ULTIMATE CHOICE.The expo had all kind of pure silks,Assam silks,Mysore silks,Banglore silks,Pochampali silks,Kanjeevaram silks,Ikkat silks,Patolas,Bandhejas,Benaras brocades etc.It was organised by CSB(central silk board)govt. of India.The place was overcrowded and the response was much more than expected as all the products sold here were affixed with SILK MARK...to ensure the purity and quality of silk.
Everything was so beautiful ....i am glad that over the years i have mastered(almost) the art of appreciating such beautiful creations without getting tempted to buy them.While she was into this buying frenzy i stood near this stall wher they displayed varoius kinds of silk yarns.There were more than 30 35 stalls offering all from sarees,dress material,mekhela chadors,kids wear etc.If you click on pics to enlarge ,you can read all the labellings.
I clicked few pics from the place where i was standing...displayed here are some beautiful sarees.
