Mint Peony & Pearl – Handcrafted Lucknowi Chikankari & Pearl Kurta Set

Airy, luminous, and steeped in quiet majesty, the Mint Peony & Pearl ensemble celebrates the delicate nuance of heritage needlecraft. Crafted from a featherlight silk-cotton blend in an ethereal mint-green hue, the bodice showcases a masterfully hand-embroidered geometric and floral Chikankari trellis, crowned by clusters of lustrous seed pearls hand-tacked along the neckline and yoke[cite: 17].

Presented as an unstitched two-piece textile cut—comprising generous yardage for a custom-tailored tunic and an airy coordinating draped scarf adorned with fine hand-worked motifs—this piece brings tactile grace and luminous subtlety to daytime nuptials, sunlit garden parties, and elegant festive occasions[cite: 17].

Craftsmanship & Technique

• The Craft: Authentic hand-embroidered Lucknowi Chikankari needlework paired with fine seed-pearl embellishment[cite: 17]. Features delicate shadow work, fine open-mesh trellis stitches (jaali), and hand-sewn pearl accents[cite: 17].
• Color Palette: Serene Mint Green / Celadon foundation illuminated by tonal embroidery and soft iridescent White pearls[cite: 17].
• Ensemble Inclusions (2-Piece Set):
  • 1 x Unstitched Tunic / Kurta Fabric (~2.5 m / 2.73 yd)
  • 1 x Coordinating Draped Scarf / Dupatta with matching floral scatter (~2.4 m / 2.62 yd)
• Base Fabric: Fine, breathable silk-cotton weave—revered for its understated liquid sheen, lightweight comfort, and effortless drape[cite: 17].

The Bespoke Atelier Fit

Offered in an unstitched format to allow complete tailoring freedom. The structured yoke design adapts beautifully into a classic straight-cut tunic, an asymmetrical contemporary cut, or an elongated flared silhouette up to US 18 / UK 22 / 3XL.

Artisan Signature & Care

Every stitch and pearl is meticulously applied by the hands of master needleworkers[cite: 17]. Minor variations in thread tension and pearl placement are natural signatures of slow, conscious luxury.

Care Ritual: Professional dry clean recommended to preserve the delicate silk sheen and hand-set pearls[cite: 17]. Alternatively, gentle hand soak in cold water using a mild botanical liquid detergent; do not wring or scrub. Lay flat to dry in shade; warm iron on the reverse side over a protective cloth.
