This Kimono, crafted from Mugha silk with chikan embroidery, is a piece of rare elegance, combining the golden and durable beauty of silk with the handmade delicacy of Chikankari. Mugha silk, with its subtle sheen and golden hues, provides a luxurious base for the intricate, hand-stitched chikan embroidery. These embroideries, brought by the Persian court to India centuries ago, are composed of floral and geometric patterns and add a subtle dimension to the fabric, further enhancing the piece. This kimono is a true treasure, uniting two centuries-old traditions of India. The city of Lucknow, located in the north of the country, is the birthplace of chikan embroidery, where it is traditionally embroidered by men.
