2. Antiquemotif art & layout created using hand carved motifs following all processes.
3. Handloom Chanderi
4. Conceptual Chikankari work, that might someday be housed in a museum of crafts, or a well researched coffee table book.
KHAYAL (mood-board):
Amer motif was created by us in the year 2020. The motif is a replica of Amer Fort, Jaipur Guldaan art done in Molten Glass in the original monument. This motif inspired us to create a range of Amer inspired Chikankari garments, as artfully, Amer Fort is one of the most beautiful forts we have seen so far.
To add to this, Noir, is a series we had created a couple of years back, to celebrate a new dimension in Chikankari embroidery - the tone on tone dark. We started this process with Black, & since then have tried Moss Green, and now moving to explore Oxblood shade. This kind of Chikankari is the opposite of classic & ethereal White on White or pastel Tone on Tone. This is rich, decadent, sultry, elegant, mysterious & yet, stately.
POSHAAK (about the dress):
This rich Oxblood shade kurta has a beautiful ghaspatti bel neckline. It features an antique late 19th Century miniature flower vase motif, which also finds its parallel in Amer fort. This is why we picked this motif to go along with the grand Amer motif newly crafted by us.
This motif is scattered on the sleeves and front of the Kurta, and the back has the grand Amer Vase motif, along with keel bootis.
It is a beautiful, artful Kurta that is sure to turn heads and become a conversation starter.
If you wish to add plain Glazed Cotton pants in same shade to match, then please email us at [email protected] and will get back with pant costing and payment link along with the kurta.
This post has Kurta (stitching is complimentary) that can be shopped. Pants can be added extra, as explained above.

KHAYAL (mood-board):
Our Pauranic Literature & History mentions many great Gods, Demi Gods, Fantastical beasts that are deified, all of whom have birthed the species that exist today on our planet. Airavat, the father of elephants, is described as an 11 trunked, three headed, many tusked gigantic elephant king, that serves as the Mount of Indra, the God of Rain and the King of Devas.
Airavat has been a part of many Dev Asur battles, and has a significant presence in our Pauranic lores. The idea to introduce Pauranic creatures in Chikankari, was birthed basis an 18th Century swatch of Sri Lakshmi goddess in Chikankari, housed in National Museum, New Delhi.
This, and an informal interviews with private collectors and ancestral artisans confirmed, that Deities of Pauranic lore, were very much part of Chikankari.
Taking inspiration from this thought, we now launch our first motif of this kind, Airavat. The one that exudes Power & Intelligence, along with humility & grace!

The front of the kurta has a Star shaped motif to bring in the celestial connect of Airavat, and those stars have also been done in Jaali stitch and closed using Orma sitch. The neckline has a ghaspatti bel.
The base of this stunning Yellow Kurta is handwoven Eri/Ahimsa/Peace Silk, with work done in shades of Rust & Dark Chocolate.
This is Quiet Luxury like never before! Just like Airavat & the species he birthed on Earth, this kurta represents Power & Gravity with its conceptual motif work that connects to our history, but also carried forward Ethical & Conscious tradition, with the use of Ahimsa Silk.
