But among st these items Jaipur is very famous for its Jaipuri quilts. The Jaipuri quilts are the handmade Indian quilts etc. In the whole Rajasthan, quilt-makers have developed a tradition of making warm and lightweight quilts called as the “Jaipuri Razai”. The word “Jaipuri” means “coming from Jaipur” which is the capital city of Rajasthan and the second word “Razai” simply means “quilts”. 


The Lightweight Jaipuri handmade quilts are widely known for its art and functionality from the past many years. The world famous Jaipuri Razai's are designed by hands using the traditional textile making skills of cotton carding and quilting. The cotton which is filled in the Jaipuri quilts is collected after the process of cotton carding. After fully carding the cotton, approx. 100 grams of cotton is used for filling a single quilt. After filling of cotton in quilt, it is stitched with strong and colorful threads. The last work is to stitch the quilt. The quilt-maker uses a sewing machine to stitch the side of the quilts together. This increases the durability of quilts and the user can use the quilts for many years to come.

Thus, now you can enjoy your winter nights in the cozy Jaipuri Razai (Indian Quilts).
