Lucknow tradition

Chikankari

Lucknow's white-on-white embroidery on soft cotton mul. Light enough for a long summer day.

What it is like to wear. Chikankari is white-on-white embroidery in fine stitches. Look for shadow work: stitches on the back that show through as soft shading on the front.

Care. Gentle cold hand wash, dry in shade. Press on the reverse so the embroidery stays raised.
