Hand work
Done by hand, in our shop
Every stitch of maggam, aari and zardosi on our blouses is done by our own team. That is why we can match the work to your saree and your fit.
The work we do
Maggam (frame work)
Thread, zari and stone work stretched on a frame. The classic bridal look.
Aari
Fine chain-stitch with a hooked needle. Light, detailed, good for everyday designer blouses.
Zardosi
Raised metal-thread work for heavy bridal and reception pieces.
Mirror and bead work
Mirrors, beads and sequins placed one by one.
Bead-work fabric
Ready-embellished fabric needs the beads cleared at every seam and fixed back. Slow, careful work, and we do it properly.
Tassels and finishing
Saree tassels (kuchu), piping and finishing that match the piece.
Close-ups
