Our Story

Arts we are presenting

Chikankari

Lucknowi chikankari is a traditional hand-embroidery style from Lucknow, India, renowned for its delicate, intricate craftsmanship and understated elegance. It is typically done with white or pastel thread on lightweight fabrics such as muslin, cotton, chiffon, georgette, or silk. The beauty of chikankari lies in its fine, detailed stitches, which create subtle textures rather than bold color contrasts.


Key features include:
Intricate floral and paisley motifs inspired by Mughal art and nature.

Traditionally associated with elegance and refinement, it was worn by royalty and nobility.
Today, Lucknowi chikankari is celebrated worldwide and used in everyday wear, festive clothing, and contemporary fashion, blending timeless artistry with modern aesthetics.
The history of Lucknowi chikankari dates back over 400 years and is closely associated with the Mughal era in India.Chikankari is believed to have been introduced to India by the Mughals.

Handblock printing

Hand block printing is a traditional textile printing technique in which carved wooden blocks are dipped in dye and manually stamped onto fabric to create repeated patterns or designs.
Each block is usually carved with a specific part of the design, and the printer aligns and presses the blocks by hand, one color at a time. This method is widely known for its craftsmanship, slight variations, and artistic quality, and has been practiced for centuries, especially in regions like India, China, and parts of Southeast Asia.

Suzani

Suzani embroidery dates back several centuries, with most surviving examples from the 18th and 19th centuries. The word suzani comes from the Persian word suzan, meaning “needle,” reflecting the hand-embroidered nature of the textile.

Suzani designs are rich in symbolism. Common motifs such as sun discs, flowers, vines, pomegranates, and tulips represented fertility, protection, prosperity, and continuity of life.

Today, suzanis are highly valued as cultural artifacts and decorative textiles, admired worldwide for their craftsmanship, historical significance, and bold aesthetic.

I’m amazed by how versatile and relevant it feels today, and how easily it can be incorporated into everyday life while still conveying the richness and beauty of the art.
