About the Art
Papier-mâché is a delicate decorative art that originated in Persia and found its true expression in Kashmir. Over generations, it evolved into a cherished folk art, passed from artisans to their families.

The craft involves two key stages:
• Sakhtsazi – the creation and shaping of the base structure
• Naqashi – the intricate hand-painting of motifs and designs

This process turns simple materials into beautiful works of art, reflecting Kashmir’s deep cultural and artistic roots.
