Ivory Crushed Organic Cotton Chikankari Suit Set with Hand Jaali Work
Hand Embroidered Chikankari · Hand-Made Jaali · Crushed Organic Cotton · Semi-Stitched · No Pants
A 2-piece semi-stitched shirt and dupatta set in crushed organic cotton, hand embroidered in Chikankari across the yoke, sleeves and hem with delicate floral sprigs and a trellis lattice worked near the hemline. Even the jaali (net) work at the yoke is made entirely by hand — no machine jaali here — giving the fine openwork a soft, slightly irregular quality that only handwork can produce. No pants included; pair with a plain cotton or crepe pant of your choice.

Chikankari is Lucknow's most celebrated embroidery tradition — shadow-work stitches worked in white on white to create a subtle, luminous texture. Hand-made jaali, where threads are teased apart and hand-worked into a fine net rather than punched by machine, is one of the most time-consuming skills within the craft and is increasingly rare to find done entirely by hand.
