An evocative blend of light and storytelling, this Hand Painted Bengal PattachitraLamp brings one of India’s most distinctive folk art traditions into a contemporary design form. Rooted in the centuries-old Patachitra tradition of Bengal, each lamp is meticulously hand-painted by skilled artisans, using fine brushes and natural pigments to create intricate narrative motifs. Traditionally, Patachitra paintings depicted mythological tales, folklore and scenes of everyday life. Here, that storytelling is reinterpreted onto a functional object. When illuminated, the artwork comes alive, with light softly filtering through the painted surface, enhancing the depth, colour, and detail of each motif. The result is an object that is both artwork and ambient light source, offering a layered visual experience.
The lamp’s handcrafted character and detailed surface make it ideal for contemporary interiors that value individuality and cultural depth. Whether placed on a console, bedside, or as part of a curated space, it introduces warmth, narrative, and a distinctly artistic presence. More than lighting, this piece is a functional art object, a convergence of folk tradition, hand painting and modern living.
