Description

Seerhand muslin was a variety in between nainsook and mull (another muslin type, a very thin and soft). The fabric was resistant to washing, retaining its clearness. Jamdani recognised as intangible cultural heritage by Unesco", The Daily Star, 5 December 2013 , retrieved 4 December 2013

During the period of Company rule, the East India Company imported British-produced cloth into the Indian subcontinent, but became unable to compete with the local muslin industry. The Company administration initiated several policies in an attempt to suppress the muslin industry, and muslin production subsequently experienced a period of decline. It has been alleged that in some instances Indian weavers were rounded up and their thumbs chopped off, although this has been refuted by historians as a misreading of a report by William Bolts from 1772. [38] [39] [40] The quality, finesse and production volume of Bengali muslin declined as a result of these policies, continuing when India transitioned from Company rule to British Crown control.

The process was so sluggish that it could take over five months to weave one piece of muslin. [16] Muslin ( / ˈ m ʌ z l ɪ n/) is a cotton fabric of plain weave. [1] It is made in a wide range of weights from delicate sheers to coarse sheeting. [2] It gets its name from the city of Mosul, Iraq, where it was first manufactured. [3] [4] [5]

In the early days of silent film-making, and until the late 1910s, movie studios did not have the elaborate lights needed to illuminate indoor sets, so most interior scenes were sets built outdoors with large pieces of muslin hanging overhead to diffuse sunlight. Surgeons use muslin gauze in cerebrovascular neurosurgery to wrap around aneurysms or intracranial vessels at risk for bleeding. [45] The thought is that the gauze reinforces the artery and helps prevent rupture. It is often used for aneurysms that, due to their size or shape, cannot be microsurgically clipped or coiled. [46] Recognition [ edit ] Muslins were originally made of cotton only. These were very thin, transparent, delicate and feather light breathable fabrics. There could be 1000–1800 yarns in warp and weigh 3.8oz (110g) for 1yd ×10yd (0.91m ×9.14m). Some varieties of muslin were so thin that they could even pass through the aperture of a lady finger-ring. [17] [18] [19] Transparency [ edit ] Mull is another kind of muslin. It is a soft, thin, and semitransparent material. The name is derived from Hindi "mal" which means "soft". Swiss mull is a type of which is finished with stiffening agents. [37] Decline under Company rule [ edit ]Eaton, Richard M. (1996). The Rise of Islam and the Bengal Frontier, 1204–1760.
