Chikankari, also known as Lakhnavi embroidery, is a traditional hand-embroidery art that originated in Lucknow, India, during the Mughal era. It is believed to have been introduced by Empress Noor Jahan in the 16th century. The art involves delicate needlework on fine fabrics, featuring floral and nature-inspired patterns. Chikankari flourished during the reign of Nawab Asaf-ud-Daula in the 18th century and became a symbol of luxury. Today, it remains a popular and timeless craft, featured on various garments, both traditional and modern.
