What is Zardozi Work?

Zardozi embroidery is a technique that uses gold and silver threads, combined with stones, sequins, and other surface materials, to form raised patterns on fabric. This form of needlework was historically worn by nobility and is still practiced by trained professionals today.

At Chinaya Banaras, we apply this embroidery style on fabrics like pure silk, organza, tussar, and chiffon, depending on the design and purpose of the saree.

Our selection of Zardozi work sarees and suit sets features a diverse range of options to suit various preferences and budgets.

1. Bridal Zardozi Sarees
   Our bridal Zardozi sarees carry dense hand embroidery and carefully structured layouts that support the needs of bridal styling. These sarees often feature deep reds, maroons, and gold tones, made to match traditional bridal settings. Patterns include floral vines, peacock motifs, and geometric lines, all applied with hand embroidery techniques using metal threads, dabka, and stones.
