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.

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.

KHAYAL (mood-board):
This beautiful flower, with opening and carelessly cascading petals, appears on almost every monument in the erstwhile Awadh region, right uptil Ayodhya. Is it Lotus (less likely), is it Semal flower (but why?), it certainly isn't rose. There has been no culture of Tulips in the country, so which flower is it, that appears on every monument of note, throughout Awadh. This motif is accompanied with Matsya motif, and can be seen in all old temples & buildings of Ayodhya, the most ancient seat of Awadh. It has to have a deep cultural significance. So for now, let us name it - The Awadh Blossom.
If one goes to the National Museum, Delhi, one can also see a gorgeous Jade knife hoslter with the same Awadh Blossom carved on it. This flower was certainly significant.
POSHAAK (about the dress):
This 2 Taar Resham Chikankari Kurta Dupatta ensemble is a rarity in minimalist moodboard. Usually when it comes to 2 Taar Resham Chikankari, it is so rare, that one gets full ensemble embroidered in it. Minimalist moodboard allows patrons to enjoy this rare & precious embroidery, with a historic motif, in a more functional format.
The front of the Kurta and sleeves has an open tulip floral motif with Qasab Taar ki Jaali, the back has the re-created statement motif of The Awadh Blossom, in all its grandeur, with very intricate workmanship.
The dupatta that accompanies the Kurta has the open tulip motif too, with Qasab taar Jaali detailing.
We chose the three colour pastel embroidery on ivory base, for the 2 Taar work to stand out in a minimalist moodboard.
The Pure Georgette Silk base makes this a perfect wear for many occasions, both formal & semi formal. Some pearls or solitaires are all one needs to dress up such an ensemble.
