Yellow Chikan Silk Poshak for Bal Gopal Ji

The Yellow Chikan Silk Poshak completes this five-color line: a bright yellow silk pleated center dotted with small mirror sequins with a wide silver scalloped lace border, an unusual gold-and-silver-free pairing for a color usually shown with gold trim, for a Krishna idol at home.

What “Chikan” Means on the Yellow Chikan Silk Poshak

Chikan refers to a traditional white-thread embroidery style closely associated with Lucknow; here it describes the fine silver scalloped lace pattern along the border rather than a colored motif. This same silver lace style is used across every color in this line.

Why Silver Trim Is Unusual on Yellow

Yellow pieces in our catalog usually pair with gold trim, tied to Krishna’s traditional peetambar garments; this listing’s silver lace border is a genuinely different pairing, worth knowing if you were expecting a gold-trimmed yellow piece specifically.

Sizing the Yellow Chikan Silk Poshak

This listing covers three idol sizes on one page, 3 inches, 4-5 inches, and 6-7 inches. Measure your idol carefully and specify the size when ordering, since these are genuinely different cuts sharing one product listing.

Silk as a Fabric Choice for the Yellow Edition

This listing is Silk, and the Care attribute confirms Non Washable, consistent with how delicate the sequin dots and silver lace are up close.

How the Mirror Sequins Are Placed on the Yellow Piece

The small round mirror sequins scattered across the pleated center are stitched individually rather than printed on, which is part of why their exact spacing varies slightly from one piece to the next, a normal feature of genuine handwork rather than a flaw.

Also Available in Cream, Dark Grey, Light Grey, and Pink

This same chikan lace construction comes in four other base colors. The Pink Chikan Silk Poshak uses the identical silver scalloped border on a bright pink base instead of yellow.

What Arrives With the Yellow Edition

Why the Scalloped Shape Suits This Yellow Piece

The rounded scallop shape along the silver lace border softens the overall silhouette compared to the sharper zigzag or teardrop borders used on our other poshak lines, giving this whole chikan line a gentler visual edge.

Small variation in exact sequin placement and lace scalloping between individual pieces is normal for this kind of handwork, not a defect. It ships pressed flat, wrapped in tissue, sealed in a poly pack, ready to dress your idol directly.

Washing the Yellow Chikan Silk Poshak

The Care attribute on this listing confirms Non Washable, so we’d recommend gentle spot-cleaning only rather than any form of home wash, given the silk fabric and the sequin-dotted center.

FAQ: Yellow Chikan Silk Poshak

What idol sizes does this fit? 3 inches, 4-5 inches, and 6-7 inches.

What does “chikan” mean? A traditional white-thread embroidery style from Lucknow, referenced here in the silver scalloped lace pattern.

Is this washable? No, the listing confirms Non Washable; gentle spot-cleaning only is recommended for the Yellow Chikan Silk Poshak.

Storing the Yellow Chikan Silk Poshak

Fold this piece flat rather than hanging it, and keep it away from anything that could tarnish the silver lace or dislodge the mirror sequins. A dedicated pouch works better than storing it loose alongside other pieces.

A Different Take on a Familiar Color

For buyers who already own gold-trimmed yellow poshaks, this silver-bordered edition offers a genuinely different look in the same familiar color, rather than a repeat of the usual gold-and-yellow pairing seen across most of our other lines.
