Hand looms are an integral part of the livelihood in many of the villages and towns in and around Kumbakonam, Thanjavur etc. So in Kumbakonam, we visited the house of Mr Kamsan, who had his loom in the front verandah of his house. Hand weaving is the family tradition, and he now has 60 odd looms around Kumbakonam. These are owned by him, he provides the designs and thread and pays the weavers a wage. This is an area which traditionally does silk weaving, and the style is the one which most of us would recognize as Kancheepuram. It takes Kamsan 7 days to weave a full silk saree which would sell at Nalli, Chennai for around 6000 and for which the labor charge is only around Rs 1000. So, if one puts in the cost of the silk, middle men, transport etc. a saree does not bring him much in the way profit.
