Pichwai Cow Plate

Painted in the Pichwai manner of Nathdwara: a white cow in profile against a deep saffron ground, her body outlined in fine black, a patterned jhool laid over her back in emerald, crimson and white, lotus blooms rising at either side and a scatter of small white motifs across the field.

The border is banded in vermilion and cream and finished with a row of white dots. Painted freehand on a round board, without transfer or stencil. Lippan art

Handmade in small batches by Chitra in Dehradun. Because every piece is made by hand, small variations in colour and finish are part of the work.

Dispatched from the studio within 3 to 5 working days. Most pieces are made or finished to order, so please allow a little longer during festival weeks.

Fragile items - resin trays, relief plates and glass candles - are wrapped in tissue, bubble wrap and a rigid outer carton.

If a piece arrives damaged, send a photograph within 48 hours of delivery and it will be replaced or refunded in full.

Because most work is one of a kind or made to order, we cannot accept returns for change of mind. Do ask any question before ordering - happy to send more photographs.

Everything here is worked by hand in small batches. Colour, grain, bloom placement and the way resin or ink settles will differ a little from the photographs.

These differences are the record of the piece being made rather than moulded, and are not treated as faults.
