Lucknow Chikan Craft
Any cotton-weaved article that comes from Lucknow may be the most consenting definition of Chikan today. Students of history say that the word Chikan was gotten from the Persian word "chikin" or "chikeen" which implies any sort of weaved texture. 
 The sources of this embroidery remain covered in the fogs of time. The fine Mughal little canvases portray Emperor Jahangir in flowing white muslin pieces of clothing with fine "white" weaving, Kamala Devi Chattopadhyay believes that chikan could be traced all the way back to the hour of King Harsha (590-647 CE), who is said to have had an extraordinary affection for white weaved muslin pieces of clothing, with no tone, no ornamentation, and nothing dynamite to adorn it. Megasthanes, in the third century B.C, had referenced the use of "blossomed muslin" by Indians in the courts of Chandragupta Maurya. 
The majority of written accounts trace the art of chikan embroidery to Bengal, from where the artisans migrated to the cities of Lucknow and Awadh to take advantage of the courtly patronage of the Nawabs. 
The Chikankari embroidery embellished both men's and women's garments. From the flowing angarkhas and chogas (tunics), achkans, and kurtas to topis and cummerbands of men's garments, it also accentuated women's lehengas and odhnis. The pure white on white embroidery translated a simple white ensemble into an exotic fashion statement. During the Colonial era, the application of Chikankari embroidery increased manifold and embellished the items exported to Britain — from muslin dresses, collars, table covers, and runners to mats, napkins, and tea covers! 
With the advent of the British Empire, the application of Chikan work embroidery increased multi fold and embellished almost everything that was exported — including muslin dresses, collars, table covers, runners, mats, napkins, and tea covers. 
The vintage patterns of chikan embroidery showcase the artistic skills that were possible through nimble fingers, which were strongly influenced by Persian and Mughal architecture. The jaalis of the Taj Mahal and the walls of the famous Imambara mosque in Lucknow have inspired the many motifs of Chikankari embroidery.
 The Chikankari weaving bunch is one of the greatest craftsman groups in India with about 2.5 lakh of hand craftsmen who are guaranteed a Geographical sign to ensure the identity of the workmanship. The plan for weaving is done completely by hand without utilizing any casings. The weaving configuration is first moved to the texture utilizing cut woodblocks, and afterward, the lines are done on it. A mix of cleanser, pop, dye, and Neel are utilized at last to eliminate the printing ink marks and furthermore give splendour to the texture. 
 The Chikankari is another example of workmanship that grandstands India's imperative expert craftsmanship!

Thanjavur Veena Geographical Indication (GI)
The veena is one of the oldest Indian musical instruments. It is played by sitting cross-legged, with the resonator to the right of the player (they give). Veena is said to be the only instrument that can play all the gamakas (oscillations) in Carnatic music, often something that only talented artists can achieve. The Veena is named after Bobbili, a place where it was invented. In 2011 the musical instrument got a Geographical Indication tag from the Government of India. It is lightweight and possesses qualities like excellent reverberation, clear grain lines, great durability, and minimum swelling in moisture. The most ancient string musical instrument from Tamil Nadu, India. This beautiful Thanjavur Veenai is a piece of art, as well as the Most ancient stringed musical instrument from India.
It contains a family of chordophone instruments from the Indian subcontinent. Ancient musical instruments were transformed into a variety of instruments, such as strings, zithers, and arched harps. Many regional projects have different names such as Rudra veena, Saraswathi veena, Vichitra veena and others.
The North Indian design, used in ancient Hindustani music, is a zither stick. About 3.5 to 4 meters (1 to 1.2 meters) in length to match the artist's measurements. The veena design of South India, used in classical Carnatic music, is a lute. Lute with a long, pear-shaped neck, but instead of a low-lying North Indian design tree, it has a piece of pear-shaped wood.
Like a torn, peeled lute, the veena can produce pots in the full range of three octaves. The long, hollow design of these Indian ornaments allows for the portamento effects and legato embellishments found in Indian ragas. It was a famous instrument in ancient Indian music, and revered in Indian culture for its incorporation into the images of Saraswathi, the Hindu goddess of art and learning.
Natal Shastra describes seven stringed instruments and other stringed instruments in 35 verses, and explains how the instrument should be played. The working process shows that the veena during Bharata Muni's time was very different from the zither or lute that became famous after the end of Natal Shastra. Ancient veena, according to Allyn Miner and other scholars, was close to the harp. The original style of the lute and zither veena played by artists is attested to by the Hindu and Buddhist temples of the first centuries of the common era. Similarly, paintings in India from the middle of the first century CE show artists playing musical instruments. About the sixth century CE, statues of the goddess Saraswathi mainly feature the zither-style veena, which resembles modern styles.
At first glance, the difference between the North and South Indian designs is the presence of two resonant frames in the North, while in the South, instead of a lower reed than a pear-shaped wooden body. However, there are some differences, and many similarities. Modern designs use fiberglass or other materials instead of empty jack wood and barrels. The construction is done with the body stems of the artist so that he can hold it and play it freely. It ranges from 3.5 to 4 meters (1 to 1.2 meters). The body is made of special wood and is hollow.
 Both designs have four music strings, three drone strings and twenty-four frets. The metal ends are usually well-shaped like swan and the exterior areas are decorated with traditional Indian colors.
Musical strings are arranged in c 'g c G (tonic, fifth, octave and fourth), where sarani (chanterelle) is used. Drone strings are connected to c "g 'c' (double octave, tonic and octave.) beaten piece.
The main line is called the Naayaki Taar (नायकी तार), and in Sarasvati veena is on the left side of the viewer. The instrument is played with three fingers of the right hand (prominent), pierced internally or externally with a plectrum. Bola alphabets are blown into North Indian veins by da, ga, ra on large strings, and many more by combining fingers with other strings. The venous settings and adjustments can be adjusted or adjusted by loosening the pins, making the Dhruva from consistency and Cala with loosened pins so that the second cord and the first cord meet.

Geographical Indication (GI)
While buying a handicraft, Sarees, Rosogullas or any other such products, have you ever wondered if they were truly authentic coming from its place of origin? Like, throughout my life till date I always thought that Rosogullas originated from West Bengal but to my surprise I recently came to know that its actual place of origin is Odisha and not West Bengal!!
Thanks to Geographical Indicator (GI) that now we can buy authentic products with conviction on e-commerce sites like www.shoppingkart24.com who only sell GI tagged products.
A geographical indication (GI) is a sign used on products that have a specific geographical origin and possess qualities or a reputation that are due to that origin. Since the qualities depend on the geographical place of production, there is a clear link between the product and its original place of production. This is offered mostly to farming, regular, fabricated, painstaking work emerging from a specific topographical zone. Topographical signs (G.I.) are one of the types of IPR (Intellectual property rights) which distinguishes a decent as beginning in the separate region of the nation, or a district or region in that specific domain, where a given quality or another trademark identified with great is basically owing to its geological birthplace. The connection among items and spot turns out to be so notable that any reference to that spot is suggestive of products starting there and the other way around
 Some of the most significant advantages of Geographical Indication (GI) are,
·        Satisfies the quest for customers looking for authentic products
·        Increases the revenue of local producers by cutting intermediaries
·        Enhances exports as GI works as a powerful differentiation factor for products in International markets by providing a competitive edge.
