KHAYAAL (Mood-board):

Gold on Gold tone Chikankari was a dream drape, that we could only imagine a Goddess draping on herself. Our moodboard was a wrap that is rich like molten gold, embroidered like it is carved using finest craftsmanship on gold, malleable like it is a rich gold lava flowing…

This is what shaped the Shahi Paan Gold Wrap/Shawl. We wanted a drape so exceedingly rich & lustrous, and yet so incredibly detailed with antique quality Chikankari, that it makes hearts stop.

POSHAAK (About the garmemt):

The stunning Shahi Paan silk shawl, is embroidered with extremely delicate and prized stitches of Conceptual Chikankari Art work.

The either side of the shawl width has the grand Shahi Paan motif, that we re created basis an archival image of a 18th Century Chikankari motif.

The body is made of an intricate trellis jaal, where hand cut work stitches like hathkati have been used extensively, to bring out the beauty of this drape.

The shawl features some rarest stitches done in 2 Taar Resham Chikankari – hathkati, shadow, murri, phanda, orma, pechni, and many more.

It is a visual treat for any connoisseur of fine Chikankari craft.

It is extremely difficult to work on full Zari Silk Chikankari pieces, because of many reasons:

1. The fabric reflects light back, making it impossible to work in full light, hence it needs perfect light setting in a room and extremely skilled artisans to make it.
2. Such fabric requires enormous dexterity and a very fine level of craftsmanship, therefore the number of artisans working on it are just 1-2 only. This means it takes more time than other sarees

Words will fall short in the praise of this exquisite beauty of a drape!! Some of these motifs are centuries old, and some freshly carved looking at centuries old motifs. A rare piece of Art.

This shawl is a timeless heirloom that you would like to pass on generation after generation.

This Shawl will pair fabulously with Swarna Kurta

If you purchase it along with Swarna Kurta, then a pair of glazed cotton pants to match will also be complimentary.

P.S: If you are noticing dark patches anywhere in the pictures, then that is the Zari reflecting the light back to the camera, and this is not present on the shawl.

Avoid moisture seeping into such pieces. Always store them in a dry place and in the Meiraas bag we deliver them in. Keep opening Silk Fabrics in every 6 months and changing its folds.
