KHAYAAL (moodboard):

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 & 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.

Shwet Sphatik or White Rhinestone is a clear pearly looking mineral stone. This beautiful White luminous Chikankari Chanderi saree with antique quality embroidery, is the perfect connect to that emotion with us, that resonates with carrying forward a revered Textile Tradition.

POSHAAK (about the saree):

This white luminous expanse of handwoven Chanderi saree is embroidered with some of the most antique motifs; some old, some recreated based on archived old motifs.

The saree palla has very antique bel boota on palla & border, made with fine and prized Murri stitch, a rare work of art. It further has our Shahi Paan boota, which has been commissioned by Meiraas, basis an archived rare motif. This motif is the finest work of art we have created, and is filled with the most complex stitches in Chikankari, including zari taar ki jaali. The palla is further filled with 7 petal lotus with fine ghaspatti stitch.

The lotuses continue through the saree. The saree is lit up with diyas of Mukaish embroidery placed beautifully amidst the fine thread art.
