Punjab Express

    Punjab Express


Phulkari (Punjabi: ਫੁਲਕਾਰੀ) embroidery technique from the Punjab region (divided between  India and  Pakistan) literally means flower working, which was at one time used as the word for embroidery, but in time the word “Phulkari” became restricted to embroidered shawls and head scarfs. Simple and sparsely embroidered odini (head scarfs), dupatta and shawls, made for everyday use, are called Phulkaris, whereas garments that cover the entire body, made for special and ceremonial occasions like weddings and birth of a son, fully covered fabric is called Baghs ("garden") and scattered work on the fabric is called "adha bagh" (half garden). this whole work is done with white or yellow silk floss on cotton khaddarh and starts from the center on the fabric called "chashm-e-bulbul" and spreads to the whole fabric.

Uttar Pradesh :- Lucknow Chikan


Lucknow Chikan

The story of Chikan Kari' goes back to the time of 'Noor Jahan' when Chikan Kari was first introduced. Noor Jahan can be called the founder of this art, She used to call artisans to copy the designs from the marble carvings and embroidery it on cloth. This marked the evolution of Chikan handicrafts.There are several theories about the origin of Chikankari. Chikankari was basically invented in Lucknow. It developed quickly during the period when the Mughals ruled and consisted of styles inspired by Persians. There are references to Indian Chikan work as early as 3rd century BC by Megasthenes, who mentioned the use of flowered muslins by Indians. There is also a tale that mentions how a Persians traveler taught Chikankari to a peasant in return of water to drink. However, the Noor Jahan story is the most popular of the lot. The name Chikan has been derived from the Persian word Chakin or Chikan meaning a cloth wrought with needlework.
