Hand Embroidered Kurtas

Chikankari

This is the first time that Chikankari has been threaded into the dāram design, which is a combine of many qualities: simple, elegant, subtle and ornate.

dāram in collaboration with the Serenity group, Lucknow , has worked on these kurtas.

Tanka

The tanka – the running stitch embroidery or straight stitch has been used for the dāram kurtas from Rajasthan. The tanka work has been done by Sadhna, a women’s handicraft enterprise in Udaipur, Rajasthan.

Lambani

The Lambanis are nomads settled in Sandur, Karnataka. dāram’s designer has picked a few from the wide range of Lambani stitches to highlight the neckline and to detail the dāram cuts.

Sandur Kushala Kala Kendra, a group working with the Lambanis, has worked to embroider the kurtas. To know more, log on to www.kushalakalasandur.com


Saris – Mangalgiri

Mangalgiri – a town in the Guntur district of Andhra Pradesh – and its surrounding villages has traditionally been known for its hand woven cotton sari weaves.

On display at dāram are saris in hand dyed yarns of cross colours in which the warp colour is different from the weft colour. The variety of zari borders includes the Nizam border, the temple border, the flower border and the pattern border.
