Buy Chikan Embroidery Sarees from ShalinCraft. Chikan embroidery is a very
attractive and delicate style enhanced through
the use of a single colour. The origin of the
word Chikan has not been traced. Perhaps it
originated from the word Chekken or Sequin – a
coin vlued at about four Rupees which was then
current in several parts of India. It may be that
the embroidery was sold for a price in terms of
the Chekken. A sari is the most commonly seen
costume of unstitched cloth worn by women across
South Asia. Varying in size, style, pattern,
color and richness, it crosses all class and
caste barriers, regional traditions and urban
fashions continue to contribute to its repertoire
of design forms. Each area in India has its own
distinctive method of draping a saree. One end is
generally worn tucked at the waist into a
petticoat, pleated and then wound around the legs
to make a long skirt reaching to the ankles; the
remaining end may be thrown over a shoulder or
over the head.

wear. Great website. Thanks.
Product arrived
fast, looked the same as in the picture. The
product delivery was personalized with a nice
thank you card. At this point I can not
discuss the quality of the product, it has
not been used.that is why the ranking is Good
(might go up or down).

delivery. The contents were extremely well
wrapped and the product itself was as
beautiful as the website had shown. I would
definitely shop this seller again!
