Craft Heritage (Kissa)
Chikankari is not just embroidery—it is a sacred craft introduced in the Mughal courts of Nur Jahan. Each garment passes through the skilled hands of 5 to 7 master women artisans over 45 to 90 days.
Bakhiya | बखिया (Shadow Work)
The quintessential shadow stitch of Lucknow. Executed from the wrong side of sheer mulmul or chiffon, it casts a subtle, ethereal shadow on the right side while outlining the motif with tiny herringbone stitches.
