Chikankari<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Chikankari is an embroidery design which has a lot of history in its creation. It originated in Lucknow and is believed to be introduced by Nur Jehan. She was the wife of Mughal emperor Jahangir. This art form was used a lot in the garment creation of royal families during the rule of the Mughals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The process involved in the creation of a Chikan uses block printing to design patterns on the fabric. The next step is to stitch around the pattern to give the design a proper finish. Then, the final output is washed so the traces of printing can be removed. When Chikankari was introduced, only white-on-white embroidery design was practised. Today, a lot of different colours and fabrics are used in this craft.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This type of embroidery design shows simplicity. It is a traditional embroidery style in Odisha and Bengal. Kantha work designed by rural women on garments like soft dhotis and sarees. It uses the method of simple running stitch along the edges of the outfit. The most interesting part of Kantha embroidery is the use of border thread as this thread is taken from the used cloth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kantha uses various motifs in its creation like animals, birds, flowers and other activities from our everyday lives. The format used while creating any motif is running stitch with short gaps.

Zardosi<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

An embroidery design which came to India from the land of Persia. It is an ancient embroidery technique which uses gold and silver thread on fabrics. This embroidery used more during the 17th<\/sup> century when Mughals ruled us under the king Akbar. Zardosi used to create garments for royal families during that era. They used silver and gold threads along with pearls and precious stones for the heaviness in outfits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even the fabric used during that time was of high quality since only royal families wore outfits created using Zardozi. Today, Zardozi work uses not just gold and silver but also copper wires and silk threads. However, the use of these threads and wires has not reduced the royalty of outfits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kashidakari<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

A type of embroidery design which is popular as Kashmiri embroidery, evolved under Persian and Moghul rule. We do not know a lot about the origin of this embroidery but people says that a Persian Sufi saint brought this art to Kashmir. It started as a hobby in Kashmir but soon became employment for many people as farming during winter is hard in Kashmir.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This embroidery designs<\/strong> depends a lot on the flora of the state. For example, Kashmir is a gorgeous place and has a lot of scenic beauty. The embroiderers use such live examples and incorporate them into their design<\/strong>. The use of animals, birds and other human figures is very less in this type of embroidery design<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
