Golden Trellis Mukaish Pinecone Kairi Organza Dupatta
₹12,500.00
Golden Trellis is our heirloom collection of Mukaish work that was historically done once upon a time in Awadh region, but is not done any more. Golden Trellis is a result of, one of the many research projects we are working upon simultaneously. We know some might not see light of the day (although we firmly believe that everything can be revived if we just have the right patience and the will to keep going), some will prove to be false tales - a mirage of a narrative built for dramatic value and nothing more...but some, like Golden Trellis will be a reality that can be translated to fabric yet again, even if in a small way, or a shadow of its one time glory...at least there will be a start.
Golden Trellis is part of the Art & Antiquities Project undertaken by Meiraas.

- Heritage Mukaish work re created: This work is known as Gukhru work . It has not been done in India or is extremely rarely done anymore. This is overlapping mesh Jaali work done in Mukaish. Its karigars are not alive now, and some of the karigars who learnt this art do not work in India. This was re created when one of them came on a small visit to his family in India. He has taught some amount of work to our small group of artisans in Lucknow. This work was historically done in Lucknow only. What can be better sustainability than finding out a lost artwork in a craft & helping revive it again to wearable pieces, & most importantly in pieces that can be part of today's Heritage Builders' private collection; this will ensure the craft's continued sustainability.
- Mukaish Hand Embroidery with proper "ghutaai" - this means Mukaish embroidery has been rubbed using old technique of filling pebbles in a bottle and rubbing on the embroidery, instead of new age roller press method. This one method ensures long lasting Mukaish. In itself Mukaish is more sustainable craft that sequins or "salma sitaara" embroidery, as Mukaish never comes off, maintaining the look of the garment for much longer time.

You can choose to get this saree made on Pure Silk Chiffon or Pure Georgette as well.
THE SUSTAINABILITY QUOTIENT (TSQ):

- PURE ORGANZA
KHAYAAL (moodboard):
"The city lies on a plain, encircled by brown desert hills, with fortifications and walls snaking over their contours. The capital itself was the prettiest I had ever seen - an intricacy of domes & towers, lattices and verandahs, with all the buildings coloured a deep Oleander Pink. In the wide well planned streets, the women wore skirts, bodices and shawls instead of sarees, and all the men wore gloriously coloured turbans - Red, Magenta, Daffodil Yellow and an indescribable Pink, that was both pale & piercing." - Excerpt from A Princess Remembers . The Memoirs of the Maharani of Jaipur, by Gayatri Devi
The above reference is to Jaipur's own Pink, that is akin to the flower of Kaner. India has so many unique colours, that it can make its own shade chart & inspire a variety of embroideries & art. This was the thought that shaped the Jaipur Pink saree, with lattices embroidered in Jaali Mukaish to pay our homage to the breathtakingly gorgeous city of the Rajputs.
POSHAAK (about the saree):
Jaipur Pink saree is an ode to Maharani Gayatri Devi's observation of Jaipur City. This soft cloud like Organza Saree is dyed a soft pink to resemble the Jaipur Pink. The saree has Chikankari detailing in the border. Its body has breath taking Kaamdaani embroidery work of Golden Trellis circles, that is heavier on the palla and grows smaller and lighter in the rest of the body.
The whole saree is sprinkled with Mukaish daana to add to its regal beauty. We have finished it with Mulberry Silk selvedge in same colour.
The saree has a running blouse piece with Mukaish daana embroidery.

KHAYAAL (moodboard):
Amer
The Rajasthani Floral art of Amer motif has mesmerised us, since we first laid eyes on it, during our travel in 2010. It is simple, yet an attractive motif of a flower vase encased inside an aala. The original motif is made using molten glass as paint. We always wanted to showcase this motif in a Muakish saree in exactly the manner of the original artwork in Amer Fort.
The Golden Trellis motif is designed after the round Trellis water reserve covers designed so aesthetically in Amer Fort!! It was a sheer delight to see the level of Indian Art & Aesthetic sense to even design an otherwise drab water reserve tops with such skill.
This saree is reminiscent of the Maharanis of India & their Royal Splendour. The dainty Organza or Chiffon sarees, the delicate Mukaish embroidery on them, the vintage Basra pearls around their slender necks and their regal style!! One of our most beautiful memories of a past gone by.
POSHAAK (about the saree):
Clouds of White Organza are held down with the glamour of Gold!!
Amer Mukaish or Kaamdaani Saree has Meiraas Exclusive motif of a flower vase encased inside an aala, as seen in Amer Fort. The saree has this grand and exclusive motif on the Palla. The Rest of this showstopper concept saree has dainty Mukaish daana all over.
In between these Mukaish daana however lies the real beauty - The circular Golden Trellis or round diskettes made in rarest of rare - Kamdaani Jaali Embroidery!! A one of a kind rarity!!
Imp: While the saree images here show scalloping on the palla, we will instead finish the saree with white silk selvedge only.
The saree can be dyed and made also on request in a colour patron chooses.
Storage: Please store safely in the cloth bag we provide. Air it after every few months.

Tulip Royale Ensemble | Ocean
₹34,300.00
This Ensemble is Made On Order only. Please select your size & we will stitch it complimentary.
Meiraas Exclusive Chikankari motif, Tulip Royale & Miniature Frame, has been conceptualised into an ensemble. It’s a novel art in Chikankari, introduced by Meiraas.
The Sustainability Quotient (TSQ):
1. Skilled Resham Hand Embroidery on Exclusive motif art by Meiraas
2. Exclusive & Rare Conceptual Chikankari Embroidery, with masterclass Jaali work
3. Handloom Chanderi & Pure Organza Silk (for dupatta)
4. Conceptual Chikankari work, that might someday be housed in a museum of crafts, or a well researched coffee table book.
KHAYAL (mood-board):
Tulips have captured the mind space of Art connoisseurs alike the World Over. Maybe its alluring form is the reason, or their vibrant colours, but the elegant and beautiful Tulips find themselves as the centrepiece in many works of Art, including Textiles, where they have a dominating presence in some cultures.
In Chikankari, we wanted these celebrated blossoms to be represented too, as the craft seems to be made for them. Our visit to a Tulip Show in New Delhi, in February of 2024, solidified this dream.
POSHAAK (about the dress):
The intertwined pair of Tulips find their romantic adaptation in Chikankari, through Tulip Royale ensemble.
The front panel & sleeves has the Tulip Royale motif patterned heavily all through, creating a beautiful tone on tone effect in Ocean Blue shade of the Handloom Chanderi kurta.
The back of the Kurta has the Tulip Royale encased inside a miniature oval frame motif, to show the allure of the blossom & its representation in Art. This motif has the rarest 3D embroidery, & the first of its kind in Chikankari.
The complete oval miniature motif has been embroidered with Qasab Taar jaali, possibly the largest surface to have Jaali stitch in. The tulip encased inside this frame has other Chikankari stitches like Orma, Bijli & Shadow.
The Jaali embroidery changes the shade of the Blue of the miniature oval, while the blue of the portions where Shadow embroidery is done have another hue; then again, the flower area with Orma stitch is darker and different blue from the Jaali & Stalk part of the embroidery. This enables 3 subtly changed shades of Blue, achieved via masterclass embroidery technique.
The dupatta is Organza Silk with Tulip Motif Chikankari miniature boota scattered and Mukaish dots added all over. It adds to the ethereal charm of the whole ensemble.
If you wish to add plain Glazed Cotton pants in same shade to match, you can select the same from Glazed Cotton Plain Pants and in Customer Note mention: Please make Pants to match the selected set. We will do the needful
This post has Dupatta & Kurta (stitching & slip is complimentary). Pants can be added extra, as explained above.

KHAYAL (mood-board):
Kabootarbaazi (Pigeon flying) is inherent to the culture of Lucknow and Awadh. Whether romanced in Ruskin Bond’s period novella “A Flight of the Pigeons” or appearing aesthetically in Ray’s “Shatranj ke Khiladi”, Pigeons and the skyline of Lucknow is synonymous with each other.
