The Golden Thread & Silver Leaf Masters of Chowk
Behind the storefronts of Chowk lies a world of shimmering metal craftsmanship that once adorned the robes of Mughal emperors and Awadh Nawabs. In tranquil upper-floor karkhanas, master zardooz artisans sit cross-legged around large wooden stretching frames (adda), stitching shimmering metallic bullion wires into royal motifs.
