KHAYAL (moodboard): A Summer Place is an ode to those vintage, glamorous, and yet, effortless drapes, that were an instant mood lifters for any occasion. It is a mood board driven by glowing summer evenings, with clear blue skies and crisp sunshine, and a long drive for an intimate evening by a Riviera. The colour of the saree is inspired by freshly blooming summer roses that light up any place with their beauty and fragrance. POSHAAK (about the saree): Hand Embroidered meticulously on luscious Pure Silk Chiffon, this Rose coloured Pink Ombre dyed Mukaish saree is made with Daana Mukaish, scattered all through the floaty fabric. The beautiful golden border of the saree is done with a seven line motif, featuring Daana & Teeki mukaish. This gives the Chiffon saree a much needed oomph! For our Mukaish sarees, we mostly prefer Daana Mukaish, for its subtle, regal charm and comfort for the wearer for a longer period of time. Dress up this saree for a dinner by the Riviera with danglers and a luxury clutch bag. For cooler evenings, you can lazily drape Konia Boota Woollen Shawl with the saree, to create a luxe silouhette, draped in luxury handcrafted heritage.

Nakshatra Mukaish Organza Saree

Nakshatra Mukaish Organza Saree

₹48,000.00
This saree is Made on Order only! Nakshatra Black Pure Organza Kaamdaani saree of Meiraas Exclusive work , The Golden Trellis with Circle Diskette & Chaand motif!! A stunning saree that celebrates forces of the Universe. THE SUSTAINABILITY QUOTIENT (TSQ): - Revival of Trellis work in Kamdaani Embroidery : A rarity, Golden Trellis, has been elusive in the repertoire of Kamdaani embroidery for over many centuries. This work of Satkhaani jaali is now done by handful of artisans only for very select collectors of heritage crafts. - Pure Organza Silk KHAYAAL (moodboard): "Summers in 1980s Lucknow meant, the whole family sleeping on the terrace at night. While one reason could be that power cuts were frequent then, another reason was its charm of sleeping under the open sky. Nani's house was a treat for me in this respect, whenever we stayed there. We would sleep under the stars, all cousins and elders around on their own charpais. Papa would take this as a moment to show me stars, planets, moon, the Milky Way, etc etc. It was fascinating & I deeply miss those innocent times. Nakshatra is a product of that reverie. Designing Nakshatra was always a dream, ever since I started working with Mukaish craft. The stars of Mukaish say so much to me than just metallic embellishments. They remind me of shooting stars, sun shining on dewdrops, planets, forces that are beyond our comprehension, and we can only see them as glittering dots, because we are limited in our scope to understand energies. This was the thought with which I explored Nakshatra. The Golden Trellis was the perfect embroidery to try this design intervention. I conceptualised a Celestial Trinity of the Sun, the Moon and the Planet to denote the Nakshatra and set it on a bed of stars in the sky in the form of this beautiful Organza Saree. I wish the patron wears it in an enchanting dinner place, under open clear sky, with millions of stars, a glass of wine and good company at hand and have a soulful time to remember & cherish forever." - Vidhi, Head of Creative, Meiraas POSHAAK (about the saree): This dark black sky of a soft cloudy Organza Saree has the Constellation in the form of - the Sun, the Moon & the Planet in Golden Trellish Kaamdaani embroidery. These motifs are heavily on the palla only, and the rest of the body has stars of Mukaish scattered all over its vast dark expanse. We have finished it with Mulberry Silk selvedge in same colour. The saree has a Mulberry Silk Blouse Piece in running with stars of Muakish. Storage: Please store safely in the cloth bag we provide. Air it after every few months.

Beautiful Mukaish Kurta Fabric on Leheriya, accompanied by a dupatta to make one of a kind set that harks to the antique Awadhi Couture style, when ladies of the erstwhile royal kingdom, wore Leheriya adorned with Mukaish embroidery! This piece however has travelled to 3 Indian states to complete its journey The Sustainability Quotient (TSQ):
  • Mukaish Hand Embroidery in Honeycomb pattern following all processes from 'kadhai' (embroidery) to 'ghutaai' (rubbing of embroidery using glass bottle to set it) done by artisan cluster of Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh.
  • Leheriya hand resist tie & dye done by artisan cluster of Rajasthan.
  • Handloom Chanderi fabric woven by weaver cluster in Chanderi, Madhya Pradesh.
  • Re creation of an archival style of Craft Confluence, prevalent in Nawab Era.
KHAYAL (mood-board): The Honeycomb reflects nature's best lesson of Singularity Pattern - there is always a loop left open from where the possibility to Re-Start exists!! Isn't that thought reflective of Human Power of Resilience? The Hive Mind. The Collective Consciousness. When done on the Leheriya pattern, that denotes Sands of Time, it creates a profound wearable art, and one that was very much worn in late 17th Century too! POSHAAK (about the garment): The Kurta fabric is Leheriya pattern in beautiful hues of Lime Green.

That is the nature and the charm of the craft. The dupatta will be closest match, as that is single dyed and not Leheriya. This is the unique charm of an artisanal piece.

Golden Trellis Mukaish Pinecone Kairi Organza Dupatta

Golden Trellis Mukaish Pinecone Kairi Organza Dupatta

₹12,500.00
Golden Trellis is our heirloom collection of Mukaish work that was historically done once upon a time in Awadh region, but is not done any more. Golden Trellis is a result of, one of the many research projects we are working upon simultaneously. We know some might not see light of the day (although we firmly believe that everything can be revived if we just have the right patience and the will to keep going), some will prove to be false tales - a mirage of a narrative built for dramatic value and nothing more...but some, like Golden Trellis will be a reality that can be translated to fabric yet again, even if in a small way, or a shadow of its one time glory...at least there will be a start. Golden Trellis is part of the Art & Antiquities Project undertaken by Meiraas. The Sustainability Quotient (TSQ):
  • Heritage Mukaish work re created: This work is known as Gukhru work . It has not been done in India or is extremely rarely done anymore. This is overlapping mesh Jaali work done in Mukaish. Its karigars are not alive now, and some of the karigars who learnt this art do not work in India. This was re created when one of them came on a small visit to his family in India. He has taught some amount of work to our small group of artisans in Lucknow. This work was historically done in Lucknow only. What can be better sustainability than finding out a lost artwork in a craft & helping revive it again to wearable pieces, & most importantly in pieces that can be part of today's Heritage Builders' private collection; this will ensure the craft's continued sustainability.
  • Mukaish Hand Embroidery with proper "ghutaai" - this means Mukaish embroidery has been rubbed using old technique of filling pebbles in a bottle and rubbing on the embroidery, instead of new age roller press method. This one method ensures long lasting Mukaish. In itself Mukaish is more sustainable craft that sequins or "salma sitaara" embroidery, as Mukaish never comes off, maintaining the look of the garment for much longer time.
KHAYAL (moodboard): Poetry etched in fabric, Golden Trellis alludes to the once opulent courts of the ancient royalties of India. Trellis is the jaali like window pattern, a signature architecture in heritage monuments of the Golden Era. This museum quality piece of legacy bound, wearable art will a pride for any one who owns it. POSHAAK (about the dupatta): Pure Organza Silk Dupatta embroidered beautifully with the rare & precious Golden Kairi (Paisley). This is a very complex embroidery where Mukaish wires are embroidered one on top of another to make a mesh trellis patten & is then interlocked within a ring. The back of this dupatta (3rd image) leaves the onlooker startled with the dexterity that would have been employed. It is like "weaving" embroidery within the fabric! Even in this miniature motif, the craftsmanship is unbelievable. A historic dupatta, that will always be the pride of the owner & will remain as part of handpicked private collection.

In the wide well planned streets, the women wore skirts, bodices and shawls instead of sarees, and all the men wore gloriously coloured turbans - Red, Magenta, Daffodil Yellow and an indescribable Pink, that was both pale & piercing." - Excerpt from A Princess Remembers . The Memoirs of the Maharani of Jaipur, by Gayatri Devi The above reference is to Jaipur's own Pink, that is akin to the flower of Kaner.

Tulip Royale Saree

Tulip Royale Saree

₹55,000.00
This saree is Made on Order Only. You can email us at [email protected] for colour & fabric customisation. Please read all details below: Tulip Royale, the grand & opulent Mukaish saree with one of kind Chikankari embroidery, added as a highlight, in the regal Royal Blue hue. The Sustainability Quotient (TSQ):
  • Exclusive Meiraas Chikankari motifs with very skilled technical work
  • Museum quality motif work
  • Jaali embroidery cut in Qasab Taar on a larger surface than usual.
  • Mukaish hand embroidery
  • Azo Free Dyes
  • Silk Mark of India certified fabric
KHAYAAL (moodboard): Tulips have captured the mind space of Art connoisseurs alike the World Over. Maybe its alluring form is the reason, or their vibrant colours, but the elegant and beautiful Tulips find themselves as the centrepiece in many works of Art, including Textiles, where they have a dominating presence in some cultures. In Chikankari & other Crafts of Awadh, we wanted these celebrated blossoms to be represented too, as the craft seems to be made for them. Our visit to a Tulip Show in New Delhi, in February of 2024, solidified this dream. In the same vein, Indian artists & portraitures carry a miniature frame to capture portraits of Royals. These two thoughts were married to make two blocks, that carry the thought of Tulip Royale saree. POSHAAK (about the saree): Let us understand this saree's highlight motif, the Tulip Miniature. Inspired by miniature Art style of Indian portrait painters and the allure of the shape of the oval/round miniature frame, we created a block of Miniature Mirror. Inside the mirror, we created our Exclusive, intertwined Tulips motif. This motif has stitches like Orma, Ghaspatti, Shadow, Bijli, amongst others. However, after the Tulip was embroidered, the rest of miniature frame space was filled with very fine quality qasab taar (zari coated thread filament) Jaali, cut by hands! An exemplary feat. This technique gives the saree a 3D Art effect, creating an illusion of colour and depth. The blue shade in each of these Oval Miniature Tulip motifs, shows three distinct shades of same blue due to the clever technique employed in embroidery. The shoulder also has a romantic web of intertwined tulips, again showing different shades of same royal blue, due to slick technique of embroidery! Rest of the saree is covered in Mukaish dots in Gold, along with a border detailing running all through. It is a saree that you will love to cherish and showcase with pride, as part of your personal heirloom collection. It is a saree that your great grandchildren or their children will someday love to show in a private visit to your home! The saree can be dyed and made also on request in a colour patron chooses. Storage: Please store safely in the cloth bag we provide. Air it after every few months. Do not spray perfume directly on Mukaish.

Konia Boota Woollen Shawl

Konia Boota Woollen Shawl

Konia Boota shawl with diagonally placed corner motif or classic Konia embroidery on pure Merino Wool. A luxurious statement for elegant winters! The Sustainability Quotient (TSQ): 1. Skilled Resham Hand Embroidery. 2. Antique motif art & layout created using hand carved motifs following all processes. 3. Chikankari on Pure Wool - A shawl to cherish & hand down over generations 4. Gender Fluid KHAYAL (mood-board): Chikankari has been seen as the summer wear for the past 100-150 years or so. However, the embroidery in itself, has enough mettle to be practised with perfect finesse on various fabrics. This has been the endeavour of Meiraas since our inception. We wanted to make this Craft more fluid to other seasons as well, as Chikankari represents the silent art of tone on tone classic beauty, that is endearing to almost everyone in every season. It speaks of class, elegance, discerning taste and grace. Its foray into Shawls was more ordained than ever imagined. We had started working on Chikankari Shawls since 2017, but the perfecting of its form happened now. It is no surprise that our choice of colour for the first shawl was pure white with tone on tone embroidery, as that is the moodboard Chikankari is most associated with; A Class Apart Heirloom in the World of Luxury Drapes. POSHAAK (about the dress): The Konia boota Resham Chikankari embroidered shawl takes inspiration from ivory & marble carvings that are delicate, timeless, rich & evocative, and the traditional konia boota classic warm drapes. This pure merino wool shawl has been embroidered on tow diagonal ends with a very fine & intricate floral motif, featuring an array of rare stitches like Jaali (qasab taar), Bijli, Kaante, Phada, Keel, Kangan, kauri, amongst many stitches. The body is scattered with a beautiful miniature phool patti motif running all through the shawl. This shawl is a lighter to drape, making it easier to drape on many occasions, and is a remarkable piece of wearable art. This is an Heirloom Shawl that can be passed from generation to generation. More than the warmth that the wool gives, this will be a cherished memory full of warmth of hands that embroidered it, & hands that picked it up and owned it, like a piece of textile jewel, that it is. P.S: You can get this shawl made on Pure Pashmina, & the colour can be customised too. Please email us at [email protected] to know more. If you wish to see the shawl on a video call, then email us to fix appointment.
