The Art of Creation
Delve into the sacred techniques of Banarasi Kadhwa, hand-zardozi, Chanderi sheer looms, and master needlework.
Banarasi Kadhwa Brocade
Kadhwa is the apex of Banarasi weaving. Unlike printed or mechanized brocades, each motif is individually hand-woven into the fabric using an extra weft. There are no loose threads or floating floats on the reverse side of the drape. A single master weaver may spend 3 to 6 weeks on a single Kadhwa saree, crafting an intricate masterpiece destined to be treasured for generations.
Imperial Zardozi & Aari Needlework
Zardozi—meaning "sewing with gold"—was historically reserved exclusively for royal courts and coronation gowns. Our master artisans in Lucknow and Rajasthan hand-stretch opulent micro-velvets and raw silks on wooden karchob frames, meticulously embroidering French bullion wires, cut-dana beads, and dabka coils into breathtaking bridal compositions.
Sheer Handloom Chanderi & Organza
Famed for its gossamer lightness and radiant translucence, our Chanderi weaves blend pure Mulberry silk with unspun cotton yarns. Finished with gold zari borders featuring royal peacock and flora ashrafi buttis, each garment offers heavenly comfort for warm Indian celebrations and opulent summer weddings.
