The word Udaan means ‘flight’ in several different Indian languages. The bird motif is a very popular classical motif in Indian folk art as Indian culture has always been nature-centric, and the art form reflects that.

Birds can represent a lot of things like freedom and free will, but a pair of birds usually represent optimism, fertility, and rebirth.

Before storing your trinkets and sharing gifts and snacks with your loved ones using Bamboo Boxes, remember:

• To clean and dust, always use a soft bristle brush, soft cotton cloth or slightly damp cloth
• Avoid soaking them in water or leaving them in a damp area
• Always air dry the boxes and never leave them under direct sunlight

Indigenous to the eastern Indian states of West Bengal and Odisha, the folk art form of Pattachitra is a reflection of India’s glorious past.

The artists - who are called Patuas - have immortalised religious, mythical, and folklore instances in scrolls of fabric.

They use bright bold natural colours and a distinctive art style that is rooted in rural tradition. In a traditional performance, the Patuas unfurl the scroll as they sing their Pater Gaan and mesmerise the audience as they transport them to a land of myth and legends.

Bamboo weaving as an art form has been around since the dawn of time. It originated as a way to make household items and utilitarian products, which has now evolved into intricately handcrafted art pieces.

The use of bamboo products is still quite widespread due to its association with auspicious occasions, weddings, and kitchens.

Several districts of West Bengal, like Malda, etc. are known for their bamboo crafts. Much like woven bamboo, bamboo crafts are interwoven in our culture and heritage.

Our products are individually handcrafted and hand-painted. Therefore, they might not be identical as they are not mass-produced.

The differences in them are not flaws; but evidence that dedicated people have worked on your product with utmost love, care, and sincerity.
