Aipanart Decoration Sri Laxmi Pith brings the traditional Aipan folk art of India onto a large, handmade wooden stand. The top is painted red, with fine white line work throughout. Laxmi’s footprints sit at the center of a star-shaped mandala with paisley petals. Two kalash and two shankh in decorated circles sit around it, and a wide border of scalloped arches, triangles, and spirals frames the top. Zigzag lines and flower motifs run along the sides, and the four rounded legs are painted red with small decorative motifs.
The pith is made from 12mm plywood and measures 30 x 21 x 10 inches. Master artisans craft the wooden pieces, and the women of Uttarakhand paint them by hand. It works well as a puja chowki, a stand for displaying your antique artworks, or a decor piece in a home temple, especially during Diwali.
Because each piece is handmade, the fine design, pattern, and color tone may vary slightly from the image. The quality stays the same.
Aipanart is a platform that showcases the traditional Aipan art of India and works to preserve this cultural heritage. Each design is crafted to support local artisans, encourage cultural exchange, and inspire a new generation to value the beauty and meaning of this ancient art form.
The cow’s life is the light of the earth. Save Cow, Save Culture, Save Nature.
