At Saras Udyog we make decorative tassels in bulk in our own factory in Jaipur, India, starting from thread we twist and dye ourselves — rayon and viscose for sheen, cotton for a matte hand, silk-look polyester, wool, jute, and zari accents where the design wants metal. Length, head style and shade are all made to order. MOQ is 5,000 pieces per SKU, and every design-size-shade combination counts as its own SKU.

A tassel is only as good as the thread it hangs from, and the thread here is our own: we have been twisting, braiding and dyeing in Jaipur since 1991, and the tassels are made in the same factory as the thread they hang from. Rolls and finished goods ship from here to more than 60 countries.
Because the thread never leaves the building, a tassel order does not chain three suppliers together. One factory holds the shade from dye vat to finished skirt — and when a buyer asks for a fibre we do not run as standard, we make it: wool, jute, or whatever the market is asking for that season.
Which Fibre for Which Job
Buyers usually pick the fibre before the shape, because the fibre decides how the tassel hangs and catches light.
Fibre
Where it goes
Rayon / viscose
Curtain and cushion tassels, dupatta and trim work — the high-sheen standard
Cotton
Matte, natural look — cotton tassels for garments, bags and bookmarks
Silk-look polyester
Sheen close to rayon with harder wear — hospitality and export lines
Wool
Soft, full-bodied skirts for home textiles and winter lines
Jute
Jute tassels for rustic packaging, gift and natural-look ranges
Zari accents
Metallic thread worked into the head or skirt for festive and occasion wear
If the fibre you need is not on that list, ask anyway — other fibres are set up on demand where the volume justifies it. Tassels fitted to a rope loop for curtains are on our curtain tie backs page.
What Separates a Good Tassel From a Cheap One
Put two tassels side by side and three things give the cheap one away.
Skirt fullness — a thin skirt shows daylight through it and twists into a rat-tail after one wash. Fullness is simply more thread, which is why a factory that makes its own thread can afford it.
The neck binding — the wrap under the head takes all the strain. Loose binding sheds strands from the first week onward.
Shade match across the lot — skirts, head and loop dyed in different batches drift apart. Ours dye in one house against one recipe, and the recipe is archived so a repeat order matches the first.
Hold a sample by the loop and shake it. If strands come loose in your hand, the neck binding has already failed.
How a Customised Tassel Order Runs
Tell us the finished length, the fibre, the shade and the quantity — a photo or physical sample of the tassel you want copied does the job of a long specification. Price and lead time come back within one working day.
Minimum — 5,000 pieces per SKU. Each design-size-shade combination is its own SKU; two shades of the same tassel are two SKUs of 5,000 each.
Sampling — we make up a physical counter-sample to your reference and courier it for approval before the run starts.
Shades — dyed in our own house, matched from your swatch, Pantone code or a length of your existing trim.
Head and loop — plain wound heads, netted heads and cord loops are all made here; specify with the sample.
Dispatch — 20 to 25 days after the order is confirmed, then 7-14 days by air or 25-40 days by sea from Jaipur, or about 2 to 6 days by courier across India.

Frequently asked questions
What is the minimum order for wholesale tassels?
5,000 pieces per SKU. Every design-size-shade combination counts as its own SKU, so one tassel in four shades is four SKUs of 5,000 pieces each. Several SKUs can travel in one shipment, and each is quoted at its own minimum.
How much do tassels cost wholesale?
₹3-25 per piece delivered anywhere in India. Small cotton and rayon tassels sit at the floor of the band; large curtain tassels, wool skirts and zari-accented work sit toward the top. Fibre and finished length move the number more than anything else, so send both with the enquiry and the exact figure comes back within one working day.
Which fibres can you make tassels in?
Rayon and viscose, cotton, silk-look polyester, wool and jute are all run here, with zari accents where the design wants metallic thread. The thread is our own — we twist and dye it in the same factory — and if a buyer brings demand for a fibre outside that list, we set it up rather than turn the order away.
Can you copy a tassel from a sample or photo?
Yes. Send the physical tassel or a clear photo with the finished length, and we make up a counter-sample in our fibre and shade for your approval. Production does not start until you have signed off the counter-sample.
How do I judge tassel quality before committing?
Check three things on the sample. Skirt fullness: hold it against the light — a skimpy skirt shows through and loses shape in use. Neck binding: shake the tassel by its loop, and if strands shed, the binding is loose. Shade consistency: head, skirt and loop should match, which only happens reliably when all three are dyed in one house against one recipe, as ours are.
How are tassels packed for export?
Counted into poly bags by SKU, then packed into reinforced export cartons. Made-to-order tassels are dispatched 20 to 25 days after the order is confirmed; air freight then runs 7-14 days from Jaipur, sea freight 25-40 days, and courier delivery within India about 2 to 6 days. Export documents for customs clearance travel with every shipment.
