Shahi Paan Tussar Silk Kurta

₹23,000.00
Meiraas Resham Chikankari featuring the re created archival Shahi Paan motif. The natural hue Tussar Silk Kurta has some of the finest Resham Chikankari embroidery & is an outstanding piece of art. The Sustainability Quotient (TSQ):
  1. Old, classic motifs: The Kurta uses old classic motifs of Chikankari, away from the commercial market mores. The Shahi Paan motif was hand carved for Meiraas exclusively using an archival Chikankari work as reference.
  2. Rarest stitches: The kurta features some of the rarest stitches like Qasab taar Jaali, Bijli which are hand cutwork stitches, Orma, Ghaspatti, Phanda, amongst many others to bring the antique art alive.
  3. Sustainable fabric base - Tussar Silk
  4. Bespoke stitching.
KHAYAL (moodboard): Paan is a very endearing moodboard of Lucknow, let alone the rest of Bharat. Paan holds not just aesthetic value for us, but it is also considered auspicious due to its various health benefits. The betel leaf is enjoyed amongst all sections of society, and has especially been patronised by the Royals of Lucknow. Shahi Paan, which was akin to Art rolled inside the auspicious Betel Leaf, had the paan makers of that time apply the best of their culinary expertise to create a gilauri that was worthy of the Deity of the temple, which later travelled to Royal courts. This gilauri was especially wrapped with hand beaten pure silver foil called Warq. Our Shahi Paan motif & the kalgi adorning atop it, is an homage to those Royal Beedas of the ancient past that are still in existence. POSHAAK (about the dress): Shahi Paan natural Tussar Silk kurta has a stunning statement back of Paan and Kalgi motif, all archival motifs, that can be seen displayed in National Crafts Museum, New Delhi. Although our motif is much bigger, as that is how hand carving happens now. Laced with very intricate detailing, the stunning motif on the back, is balanced by a beautifully minimal neckline & sleeve line. Jasmine flowers motifs adorn the front of the kurta, making it a regal & subtle piece that is perfect for Festivities & Weddings. The kurta is paired with Glazed Cotton pants in the same shade. It adds depth & character to classic Chikankari, & makes it a novelty, without taking away from the core essence of the craft. Additional Details: The Kurta is Made on Order only. Please feel free to give your custom sizing (please specify body or garment sizing), in case you don't find your perfect fit in our size chart. The Kurta will be accompanied with a pair of plain Glazed Cotton Pants in same shade as Kurta. You can choose to make a pyajama or a pant; please put this option in the customer note. For more queries, please mark a mail on namaste@meiraas.com ; we will be happy to guide you through the process.

Noir

₹30,000.00
Meiraas Noir Chikankari Kurta in Bold, Black hue. The Tussar Silk Kurta has some of the finest Resham Chikankari embroidery & is an outstanding piece of art. The Sustainability Quotient (TSQ):
  1. Old, classic motifs: The Kurta uses old classic motifs of Chikankari, away from the commercial market mores. This Flower Vase motif seen here is almost a 100 years old & has more of an English than typical Awadh touch.
  2. Concept Work: Introduction of Noir moodboard in Chikankari, which will explore darker, deeper hues to push the design envelope further.
  3. Sustainable fabric base - Tussar Silk
  4. Bespoke stitching.
KHAYAL (moodboard): Noir is a term used for dark or with darker shades. The term is typically used for moodboards in film making, however, taking inspiration from there, it has been used by Global Luxury houses for perfumes with deep notes. We always wanted to explore Chikankari outside the ambit of classic, and create more varied moodboards, of which Noir is the perfect one, to give depth to this beautiful needle art. POSHAAK (about the dress): Noir is a Tussar Silk Chikankari Kurta in Black hue. This Kurta has a beautiful neckline of SwarnaPaatra jaali work, with Zari Taar Jaali. The front of the kurta has an old motif of Flower Vase with rare stitches & masterpiece Jaali work on one side (in place of front pocket). The same motif is present on either sleeves & back, making this one stunning & bold kurta. The kurta is paired with Glazed Cotton pants in the same shade. It adds depth & character to classic Chikankari, & makes it a novelty, without taking away from the core essence of the craft. Additional Details: The Kurta is Made on Order only. Please feel free to give your custom sizing (please specify body or garment sizing), in case you don't find your perfect fit in our size chart. The Kurta will be accompanied with a pair of plain Glazed Cotton Pants in same shade as Kurta. You can choose to make a pyajama or a pant; please put this option in the customer note.
