Blush Pearl or Pink Pearl is the inspiration behind this saree. A strand of pearls with Chikankari Kota sarees is what defined the ladies of Lucknow and their summer afternoons & evenings.

That understated elegant look was the inspiration behind this saree.

Summer evenings cannot be as elegant, unless draped in this beautiful Blush Pearl Tepchi Chikankari saree. The saree features a very unique style of palla layout. It has a beautiful border on 3 sides, which features stunning taagha Jaali work along with Tepchi, a rarity now, and something we love doing.

Khayal (Moodboard):
Miniature or "keel ka boota" are absolutely small and detailed motifs in Chikankari, that though very popular once, and now used very sparingly in a very commercial market. These motifs were extremely popular amongst even the Britishers and Europeans who loved the appeal of a clean palette with nuanced small motifs, lazily adorning the fabric with delicate touch. Meiraas undertakes the work of finding such miniature antique motifs (now such new motifs are not made) and using them to create subtle pieces of wearable art.
Poshaak (About the fabric):
This Chikankari and Mukaish Top/Blouse fabric is an ethereal White on White beauty, with smattering of two miniature motifs of Flowers on front & back and one motif for sleeves. This will be a blouse that you will love to pair with any saree. We will recommend that you keep it white for multi usage. Please get the fabric fully lined to make a blouse.

- LINEN WEAVE COMMISSIONED FOR MEIRAAS, THEREFORE FULL QUALITY CONTROL
- RESHAM CHIKANKARI (HAND EMBROIDERY PRACTISED SINCE ANCIENT AGE)

KHAYAAL (moodboard):
Yakshi 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 both Chikankari as well as Mukaish.
Yakshi is a celestial nymph mentioned in Ancient Puranic texts and epics like Ramayan and Mahabharat. The khayal to name this collection, Yakshi came with the Temple Art of India, like Khajuraho group of temples; the celestial nymphs are set in stone in the most beautiful expressions in these temples. They have been made with such devotion and aesthetics that one can imagine them coming to life at night, and reliving the days of past glory!!
Linen as a fabric was extensively worn in almost all Ancient Civilisations. In fact some sources suggest the possibility of white on white embroidery being worn in Chandragupta Maurya's court; some ancient texts also talk of the legendary Maharaja Harshvardhan of Kashmir, only wearing White on White embroidered fabric.
POSHAAK (about the saree):
Amer 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 motif showcases masterclass Jaali (hand cutwork) embroidery of 2 kinds - Katori (squares like jaali) and Siddhaul (regular Jaali), both made in Kasab Gold Taar, making the process more skilled and time consuming. The vase has an outline of another cutwork - Double Hathkati.
It is a rare example of masterclass Chikankari. Rest of the palla has small floral motif in shadow embroidery. The same motif is scattered far apart in the body of the saree saree till the end.
The colour scheme is soft pastel on pastel play of - pastel grey & light lime. One of a kind!
Styling Tip: Like most Meiraas creations, this saree can be dressed up & down for multiple occasions, whether work wear or party wear. It has its own charm in both situations.
Imp: Some threads of the fabric shift at times due to round frame of Chikankari embroidery & nature of fabric. This is normal and nothing to worry about.
Please Note: Slight wrinkles are part of Pure Linen texture. Linen is the most low maintenance fabric. Ideally before draping this saree, take it out and spread it and hang somewhere at least a day before; its wrinkles will smoothen significantly. Mostly it should be worn with slight wrinkles, yet if you wish to iron the dhobi press will be fine, with a cloth on top.
