Mashroo is a traditional textile art form with roots deep in Islamic culture, particularly prevalent in the Indian subcontinent. The word "Mashroo" is derived from the Arabic word "Mashruba," meaning something that is permitted or lawful. The distinctive feature of Mashroo fabric lies in its weaving technique. The fabric is woven with a combination of silk and cotton threads, creating a unique texture and appearance.
