The Rumi Shirt
£250
London · Lucknow · Contemporary Chikankari
A small house of Lucknowi Chikankari, made slowly between London and Lucknow — worn by the woman who wishes to live her clothes, not merely wear them.
an aangan of one’s own
Heritage, worn lightly
Aangan reclaims Lucknowi Chikankari from the bridal-only rail and the souvenir bazaar, and places it where it belongs: in everyday luxury. Each piece is hand-embroidered by named karigars in Old Lucknow, then finished for London — the office, the dinner, the slow Sunday.

The Atelier · Gola Ganj, Old Lucknow
Our pieces are made in a small atelier in the old city, where eleven women karigars work under lead artisan Rukhsar Begum. We name them, we pay them fairly, and we publish what we pay. Proximity, for us, is not advantage — it is responsibility.
The Garden of Stitches
“This began with a courtyard in Lucknow. My grandmother taught my mother. My mother taught me.”
— Rajvee Arora, founder
Made slowly, on purpose
We release in small capsules — editions of twelve to forty-eight — and then we begin again. Natural fibres, hand processes, fair and documented pay. Luxury, to us, is knowing exactly whose hands made the thing you love.
The Journal
A short film on the slow choreography of needle, frame and morning light.
On restraint as the most generous form of decoration.
