شمع (Shama)
A Symphony of Shadow Work Elegance
Shama (شمع), in its serene soft green hue, is adorned with delicate Shadow Work Embroidery, a traditional craft from Bahawalpur. This technique, also known as Chikankari, involves creating herringbone stitches on the reverse side of fine lawn, resulting in a beautiful shadowed effect on the front. The intricate floral and paisley motifs, meticulously embroidered, bring a touch of elegance and sophistication to the garment.

80 Gram Raw Silk
- Dry Clean Only: For best results, we recommend professional dry cleaning to maintain the fabric's texture and color.
- Spot Cleaning: In case of minor stains, gently blot the area with a clean, damp cloth. Avoid rubbing, as this may damage the fibers.
- Ironing: Use a low heat setting on your iron. Place a pressing cloth between the iron and the fabric to prevent direct contact and potential damage.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Use padded hangers to avoid creases and maintain the garment's shape.
Fine Quality China Silk

- Ironing: Use a low heat setting. Iron on the reverse side of the fabric while it is still slightly damp, or use a pressing cloth.
