Squarish silk handkerchief of brownish tussar silk, block-printed in red and black with a floral design. Printed handkerchiefs like this were a major export item from Bengal to Europe in the 18th and 19th centuries. This type, with floral print on a tussar silk ground, is close to other types of printed tussar textiles such as saris made in the textile centre of Berhampur. The major export for trade goods like the handkerchief was nearby Kasimbazar, a name that became almost synonymous with Bengali export piecegoods. BENGAL HANDKERCHIEFS Traders exported handkerchiefs made in Bengal to Europe and North America. Printed silk choppas (from Hindi chhapna: 'to print') were hugely popular, as were tie-dyed silk bandannoes (from Hindi bandhana: 'to tie'), the origin of the modern bandanna handkerchief. Fine Bengali cottons were also used for handkerchiefs, sometimes with mottos or names woven into their borders. Length of bandannoe handkerchiefs Tie-dyed silk Berhampur, West Bengal, 1830-80 V&A: 18.678-1883 Choppa handkerchief Printed silk Kasimbazar, West Bengal, 1820-50 V&A: 18.17-2008 Personalised handkerchief Cotton with silk borders, woven with the name and titles of Colonel T.H.
