Description

Kalamkari's name comes from the pen, kalam, once dipped in natural dye to trace mythological scenes onto temple cloth across Andhra Pradesh. The peacock, tied to the god Kartikeya and to the first monsoon rains, is one of the tradition's most graceful recurring figures, rendered here in fine, layered linework across a narrow tray.

The design is decoupaged onto engineered wood and sealed for daily handling, holding onto Kalamkari's characteristic detailing through regular use. Its narrow shape suits a compact serving spread or works well as an accent piece on a shelf.

It's an elegant small gift for anyone drawn to Andhra Pradesh's classical dye-painting heritage.

Material: Medium Density Engineered Wood, decoupage-finished and sealed

Dimensions: 39 cm x 12 cm x 4 cm
