Artisan hands embroidering Chikankari on ivory cotton

Our Story

Three hundred years of needlework, worn today

Madeeha Chikan works directly with karigars in the old lanes of Lucknow, where Chikankari has been passed from hand to hand for generations. Each piece begins with a hand-blocked pattern and ends with dozens of hours of fine white-on-white embroidery.

We keep our palette restrained, our fabrics breathable and our cuts contemporary — so a craft made for another century belongs easily in this one.

Why Madeeha Chikan

Made with intention

Hand Embroidered

Every motif is stitched by Lucknow artisans — never machine printed.

Breathable Fabrics

Cotton mul, chanderi and georgette chosen for Indian summers.

Considered Fit

Modern silhouettes graded across sizes for an easy, elegant drape.

Worldwide Delivery

Carefully packed and shipped from Lucknow to your doorstep.
