Indian Nui Shibori Stole on Tussar Silk (Pure) fabric.
Please Read:
Indian NUI Shibori is a varied version of the original Japanese Nui Shibori. The Japanese Shibori is done only by hand & generally makes one big pattern on a small swatch of fabric.
In India, this method varies. The patterns in Indian NUI are drawn by hand on papern, and then sewn by sewing machine allover the fabric.
The handmade process involved here is drawing the pattern, tracing on fabric, tying & dyeing post machine embroidery, opening of all tie to reveal final product, finishing treatment (eco friendly).
Note: These days a lot of Digitally made Shibori from India is doing the round of market that looks very intricate in the first look. However on deeper 2nd look, you see that the NUI holes (made from sewing machine embroidery) are barely visible & light cannot pass through them. Therefore please bear in mind that the Indian NUI Shibori will have prominent needle marks in pattern (refer to the last image).

FROM THE VAULT COLLECTIVE
Chandrakala is our final firm foray into the World of Aari & Zardozi art of Lucknow. We always wanted to do this art, but only for Museum Quality wearable art pieces, & nothing less!! Chandrakala is just that.
KHAYAL (moodboard):
Chandrakala, or the art of crafting Moon, is a labour of extensive research we did before launching this Vault Collective Zardozi Dupatta, crafted in Lucknow. We visited the museums of Jaipur, & in one of them saw a Red silk odhani, with Moons crafted on it with Real Gold dabka wires. The antique dupatta was torn at some places, telling stories of a once glorious past, but was carefully preserved in the Museum. It was reaching out to us with a gaze that was almost saying "Resurrect Me!!". That was the moment we decided this will be our first Zardozi Dupatta. We could not photograph the Dupatta, & neither creating the exact replica was in our minds. We did have a Chikankari motif, an old one, that had a beautiful Chaand border (see here Chaand Mayur Dhanlakshami Chanderi Saree). We decided to re create a format of that antique motif that was so reminiscent of the Maharani's Dupatta we saw, that we made a Zardozi "khaaka" out of it. The fabric used was pure Handwoven Tussar Silk to create that Regal journey!! - Vidhi Rastogi, Head of Creative, MeiraasÂ
POSHAAK (about the saree):
Chandrakala Dupatta is made on Handwoven Tussar Silk that is certified by Silk Mark of India. The fabric is supple and perfect to hold and add to the grace of the regal work on it. The border is embroidered with a beautiful & unique Chaand Border (read above), and has been embroidered using both Silver & Golden Dabka wires. The Dabka is extremely fine quality, please use Zoom to see the intricate detailing. The 4 side heavy border is complemented with small flower bootis in the body. To take this further, the dupatta is finished with Handwoven Gold Pure Zari Silk selvedge detailing, to make it one of a kind outstanding Dupatta.
It is perfect as a one time investment to take on Lehengas, Kurtas, as a Light Shawl on sarees. This is a perfect gift for a new Bride as well, she will cherish it forever and pass on her legacy to her future generations.
