Description
In the Kohbar paintings that once decorated the walls of a Mithila wedding chamber, the peacock appeared again and again beside images of Radha and Krishna, its feathers standing in for beauty, love, and the arrival of the monsoon. That romantic, celebratory association has carried through generations of Madhubani painting, the folk art tradition of Bihar's Mithila region.
This family-size tissue box renders that peacock in a warm yellow palette, its tail filled with the fine, dense linework that gives Madhubani art its distinctive, almost woven texture. The motif is applied through decoupage artistry and finished under a protective clear coat, keeping the detailing crisp through daily use on a family table.
Its radiant colour and romantic motif make it a fitting centrepiece for a dining table or living room console, and a thoughtful gift for weddings, housewarmings, birthdays, or any occasion where a piece of Bihar's folk heritage feels right at home.
Material: Medium density engineered wood, with decoupage paper, set under a clear coat sealant.
Dimension: 23 cm x 12.8 cm x 7.7 cm
