Chikankari is a traditional embroidery style that originated in the Indian city of Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh. It is characterized by delicate and intricate needlework on fine cotton fabric, creating beautiful patterns and designs.

Chikankari embroidery involves a combination of different stitching techniques, including shadow work, zari work, and French knots, among others. The designs are usually inspired by nature, with floral motifs and paisleys being the most common.

Chikankari is a labor-intensive art form that requires a high level of skill and expertise. The embroidery is usually done by hand using a fine needle and thread and can take several hours to complete even a small piece.

The popularity of Chikankari has spread beyond its origins in Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh, and it is now widely recognized as a symbol of Indian craftsmanship and heritage. Today, Chikankari is used to embellish a wide range of garments, including sarees, kurtas, and dupattas, as well as home decor items such as bedspreads and cushion covers.
