Origin and History of Paithani saree:The term Paithani comes from the name of the Paithan town in the city of Aurangabad. Paithan town is situated in the Maharashtra region of India. Paithani sarees have originated during the Satvahana Dynasty almost 2000 years ago at around 200 BCE by the banks of the divine Godavari river which later progressed throughout the Deccan region. Many stories go ear to ear about the making of the saris with fine threads of gold and silver during the era of the primeval period.

Paithani saree rose to popularity in very less time due to its rich look, color, texture and intricate designs. But it reached its peak mainly during the time of the Mughals. During the Mughal period, the emperors and queens preferred wearing paithani saris made of gold and silver threads. But unfortunately, with the beginning of British rule and the Industrial Revolution,

there was a big decline in the weaving industry that was the core of the making of paithani sarees. But, the crafts were not entirely lost until in the 17th century the Peshwas decided to actively promote craftsmanship. It is since then that the fabric again got its life back.

Among all other Indian saree, Paithani is regarded as the best because of its unique designs and

patterns. They are weaved in six and nine yards, unlike any other saree. They also specialize in the feature of the same looking sides. The pallu and the

border also look the same. It is also noteworthy that these saris do not lose their shine and lustre till ages even after washing them for many years. Also,

it is important to know that Paithanis never wear out at the folds, unlike many other silk sarees. The most common, prominent and interesting designs

that feature in the pallu and borders are namely the lotus, peacock, flowers, fan, coconut, bangle,

mango, parrot, and other musical instruments.
