The origin of Chikankari work can be traced to the gullies of Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh. The literal meaning of the word Chikan is embroidered fabric and has been derived from the Persian word ‘Chikin.’ And, this style of delicate handwork is believed to have been presented by Nur Jahan, the wife of the Mughal ruler Jahangir. Authentic chikan work of the finest quality can be seen at the Chowk, Lucknow, from where it is delivered all over the world.
