The saree celebrated in this Khush Magazine editorial is a cherished heirloom that has now completed 150 glorious years of existence. Handwoven and crafted with meticulous precision, incorporating 24 karat gold dabka marori work, 26 number single thread resham french knots, and a rare craft of sewn metal using distinct needles, the saree showcases the marvellous workmanship and creative acumen of traditional artisans. From the onset, the saree helped chart a path for Lajwanti by highlighting their forte in the domain of handcrafting textiles using a variety of innovative decorative techniques, i.e, zari and zardozi, dabka, mukaish, dori and kasab. Even after being passed through generations, the saree remains in pristine condition and showcases the durability of a timeless classic.
