KHAYAL: Moodboard "When you think of Chikankari, you invariably think of the Classic white on White. There is an ethereal charm of tone on tone Chikankari, that seems like a whisper of the soul whose hands embellished the fine fabric. They carry the joy, the tears, the stories, the candour that the artisans share, while the needles bring alive each Flower, Knot, Trellis; but how much more beautiful would it be, if this whisper was instead on Gold. It would be probably reminiscent of the Jama, that the Royals of yore used to wear, something that is today exclusively housed in very prestigious Textiles museums of the World. For me, as a designer and a connoisseur, it is heart wrenching to see beautiful embroidery housed in a Museum, to be gawped at, but designated to a fate where it shall never be part of someone else’s story. Shahi Paan Kurta is our endeavour from The Art and Antiquities Project of Meiraas, for which we travel through museums, seek crafts in Temples and study Historical archived images, so that the Queens in us can make these designs a part of our unique story again." - Vidhi Rastogi, Head of Creative, Meiraas. POSHAAK: About the outfit 2 Taar Resham Chikankari Kurta on Handwoven Gold Zari Silk Fabric. The back of the kurta has Shahi Paan statement motif. The front has Bijli Boota revival motif. The neckline is round boatneck style, with very fine antique trellis stitch detailing. The same detailing is given on the sleeves.

Dhanlakshami Chikankari Sarees, The Wedding Collective

TaamraLakshami

₹55,000.00

This saree is Ready To Ship. THE SUSTAINABILITY QUOTIENT (TSQ):-

Resham Chikankari (Hand Embroidery Practised Since Ancient Age).
Hand Picked Ancient Archived Motifs.
Conceptual and Exclusive Chikankari Artwork on Zari Silk fabric.
Handloom Zari Silk fabric.
Museum quality Chikankari sarees that can be handed down generation to generation as a treasure.

The saree 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.
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
Zari Taar Jaali work is extremely difficult to do on this saree; Cutting jaali by hand is a difficult and time consuming process as it is (this is why its artisans are reducing, as they demand better wages for the time and skill, which popular market is unwilling to pay). Cutting a jaali using Zari Taar filament is the toughest level, as the Zari Taar is not visible to the naked eye easily. In this case Zari Taar has been used to cut Jaali on full Zari Silk saree, making it the toughest level. This obviously commands time and best wages for the artisans involved.

Words will fall short in the praise of this exquisite beauty of a saree!! Some of these motifs are centuries old, and some freshly carved looking at centuries old motifs. A rare piece of Art. The unique Red Gold colour of the saree with Red embroidery makes it stunning, regal and a timeless heirloom that you would like to pass on generation after generation. The drape of this saree is breathtaking; rich and very form fitting and supple, making it ideal for all body types. We will also provide a 1 metre running Chikankari embroidered Tussar Silk blouse piece in Red colour as part of the saree. 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 saree. Avoid moisture seeping into such sarees. Always store them in a dry place and in the Meiraas bag we deliver them in. Keep opening Silk Sarees in every 6 months and changing its folds. The saree is 41.5 inches in width, in case you want increase in the width of the saree, please drop us a mail at namaste@meiraas.com . We will add a coloured fabric seamlessly on the tucking in area to give you your desired width.

KHAYAAL (Mood-board): The Khayal or Aatmamanthan behind keeping this collection under the name Dhanlakshmi was very clear. We wanted to make a repository of Heirloom Sarees, where we can create colours and palettes that signify the opulence of Sri Lakshmi. After successfully venturing into Gold, Silver hues, and Pearl, Firoza, Precious stones like Tourmaline, Agate hues, we wanted to include Gemstone shades. Our lands are blessed with a variety of natural minerals and gemstones that have immense energy stored within them. Formed under the envelope of Bhoodevi's (Earth) womb, they radiate and reflect back her energy and lend them to the wearer. Our Chanderi sarees, adorned with heirloom quality Chikankari, are named after these soft and deeply spiritual stones. Chandramani or Moonstone is a beautiful grey silver hued sometimes clear, sometimes cloudy to opaque looking gemstone. This beautiful Grey rich Chikankari Tussar Silk saree with antique quality embroidery in white Resham, is the perfect connect to that emotion with us, that resonates with carrying forward a revered Textile Tradition. POSHAAK (About the garment): Chandramani, as the name suggests is a soothing Grey Chikankari Tussar Silk saree, that glows radiant like the soft & soothing glow of the Moon. We decided to use White Resham embroidery on this saree, to symbolise Bela and Motiya blossoms under the soft Moon Glow in the festive months. The signature motif used here is a lovely Floral creeper that has stunning Zari Taar Jaali stitch. Rest of the motif is done using Shadow, Ghaspatti, Chanapatti, Keel, Phanda etc. The saree has a detailed border running all through the saree, and the signature motif rests on the palla, as well as one of them also rests on the shoulder, like a brooch. The saree is filled with little Bela blossoms in white. Stars of Mukaish add to the deeply beautiful charm of this saree. It is an unconventional colour for festive and wedding season, and yet one that will stand out gracefully, with a stately charm. Saree is further finished with Kingri gota lace in silver, and we will also provide a 1 metre approx. running blouse piece.

Chikankari & Mukaish Lehenga Skirt

₹59,500.00

This is an extremely Fine & Rare 3 Taar Chikankari Lehenga Skirt with Mukaish. Please note such Chikankari Lehengas are very rare and difficult to come by, and take months in production. Due to their rarity they are available as a single piece only. The Lehenga is dyeable in any shade. Please reach out to us for colour customisation at namaste@meiraas.com The Sustainability Quotient (TSQ):

Very Fine Chikankari (Hand Embroidery Practised Since Ancient Age)
Mukaish Embroidery (Ancient Beaten Metal Wire Embroidery)
Hand Picked Ancient Archived Motifs

- Extremely Fine quality handwork, that is a rare find

Pure Georgette Silk fabric that increases the longevity of the garment & makes it timeless

Free Size fastening, so that this can be handed down generation to generation, making it Sustainable.
Classic finishing of High quality Lining and Buckram, which makes the garment timeless & ageless.

Khayal (Moodboard): Lehenga has been part of the cultural milieu of our country, since the times of Ayodhya and Sri Ram, and Kathak dance; maybe the dress even predated that era and got a grander version with the first known Kathak performance for the beloved scion of Ayodhya, after his coronation. Since that time, Lehenga, which is essentially a wide flared skirt, has seen many avatars. It is worn in beautiful, bright cottons, with tie and dye craft in many cultures, to this date. Its dressier versions include Handcrafted premium embroidered or woven varieties in jewel tones or plush rich hues, meant to stun the onlookers with its elegance, class and grace. Wedding Lehengas soon started replacing the Wedding Sarees in many places, and today have become a signature look for the Brides in India. The charm of a Lehenga skirt, Dupatta and Choli is so unbeatable, that it has its versions in almost all crafts of the country, the latest addition being Chikankari and Mukaish. A Chikankari Lehenga is like an ethereal fantasy come true. Embroidered richly upon Pure Georgette Silk, it looks like a beautiful dream, a garden of senses if you will, lit up with thousands of fireflies (Mukaish), rendering the wearer look nothing short of an angelic vision. Poshaak (about the dress): This is a 12 Kali (flare) Lehenga skirt only, which has very fine and beautiful work of waves made in shadow stitch and floral shadow stitch embroidery, among other stitches, alternating between each kalis. The lehenga is made in 3 taar embroidery, and is exceptionally neat and fine. Each stitch will come alive as the wearer moves in it. What differentiates an exceptionally fine lehenga from a regular variety is its attention to detail, even in its corners and borders; even the embroidery done on the length of the Kalis, adds to its overall finished look, which is crucial in any sustainable handcrafted garment. Mukaish must add to the charm, and not become a mainstay, overshadowing the Chikankari; both the crafts need to speak a symbiotic language for the whole ensemble to come alive. This skirt is finished in Free Size and has a traditional waist tie up. It is finished with a good quality Cotton lining for all day comfort, and has been given a high quality buckram in the hemline to give the skirt the required body. This classic finishing makes this fine quality handcrafted piece not only more wearable, but timeless, and worthy of handing down as an Heirloom piece. Styling Tip: There are so many options one can exercise with a Chikankari Lehenga Skirt. You can team this beauty up with a blouse and dupatta of another craft to create an exceptionally elegant yet unique look; or one of the favourite fusion ways to wear this is with a Satin button down shirt & a gorgeous jadau necklace for a fun cocktail evening. You can be as imaginative as you want with a Chikankari Lehenga Skirt. Note: Only the Skirt is available to shop from this post.

Poshaak (about the dress): This is a 12 Kali (flare) Lehenga set with a heavily embroidered Dupatta anointed with heavy Mukaish and a Blouse. This Lehenga Set is named Oorja, for its representation of beautiful white surrounded by 7 colour leheriya Gota lace, making it the perfect symbolism for Rainbow & Sun's energy. The Sun & its Rainbow coloured rays are the source of life, growing on Earth. It is as if, the Sun is a mighty God, riding the chariot, with his 7 coloured horses - VIBGYOR, that are present everyday to grow life. Keeping this auspicious thought in mind, we have designed this lehenga. The lehenga in itself has extremely fine Chikankari embroidery and has stars of Mukaish lighting it up. It is a piece of Art you would love to cherish, wear repeatedly, grow old with it & hand it over someday to a willing craft connoisseur in your next generation. It will be your own heritage!! Please contact us at namaste@meiraas.com for any customisation you desire, and we can take it forward. Styling Tip: Pair this gorgeous Lehenga set, that celebrates Energy, with Navratan jewellery set. The pristine & elegant white against pops of colours will look absolutely beautiful.
