Vintage Lucknow Chikan Odhana Shawl
Pretty Chikan embroidered shawl in baby pink.
From Lucknow / Awadh
Superb cotton embroidery on diaphanous superfine cotton or organza base
Has some yellowing along a fold line and at a corner. And a few holes that most likely came from the shawl snagging on some sharp object during wear as the ends hang loose. [highlighted in the photos]
The embroidery would have taken over a month to complete.
Made around 1980-1990
Over 2 meters long and over 1 m wide.
