FAQ's
The word Chikankari literally means 'Embroidery' (thread or wire). It is one of Lucknow's oldest textile decoration styles. It is a very delicate and intricate type of embroidery. Initially, the embroidery was done using white yarn on colorless muslin known as tanzeb. However, today, georgette, chiffon, cotton, mulmul, and other fine fabrics are also being used.

- Look for various traditional Chikankari stitches such as "Bakhiya" (shadow work), "Phanda" (small dot), etc.
- Check the fabric, it should feel pure, soft, and breathable.
- Buy Chikankari kurtas from trusted sources, well-known brands, or artisan cooperatives
