The craft traditions of Kolkata not only represent the region’s rich cultural history but also provide livelihoods for thousands of artisans. Many of these handicrafts are produced using age-old methods, often without the use of machines, ensuring that each piece is unique. Moreover, these crafts have become an important part of the global appreciation of Indian folk art.
In recent times, the craft has been evolving, often fused with modern fashion trends. Designers are blending Chikan Kari with other embroidery techniques to produce more experimental, fashionable clothing that resonates with younger generations. The embroidery is admired for its beauty and craftsmanship, and West Bengal’s contribution to the art form has added richness and diversity to its tradition.
Gentle Hand Washing: Hand-embroidered products should be washed gently by hand or on a delicate cycle in the washing machine to prevent the threads from being damaged.
Avoid Bleaching: Bleach can ruin the embroidery and the fabric, so avoid using harsh chemicals.
Iron with Care: Always iron the products on a low heat setting, and preferably on the reverse side of the embroidery to avoid crushing the stitches.
Drying: Dry hand-embroidered products in the shade, away from direct sunlight, to preserve the colors of the embroidery thread.
