Dhokra art is a 4,000-year-old metal casting tradition, one of the oldest art forms in the world. It originates from tribal communities in India, known for their mastery of the lost-wax casting method.

Each piece begins as a wax model, encased in clay, and is transformed into a unique brass or bronze creation. This process ensures that every product is one-of-a-kind, reflecting intricate designs inspired by nature, mythology, and tribal life.

Dhokra art celebrates India's cultural heritage, representing the dedication and skill of artisans who keep this ancient craft alive.

Material "The Gond tribals originally come from Central India. They love to pour their exuberance for life into their art, in which they use bright colours, and a distinct lack of boundaries is abundant.   
The starkness of the style serves to bring into focus the theme of the craft, the Tree of life. It occupies pride of place, and all life and all activity originates from it and moves towards it again because it is both, the cause and the end of life. Symbolically, it is the living proof of all creation, a reminder that it is Mother Earth that sustains us. 
Dokra, locally known as “Bharaikaam”, is the art of sculpting brass with the ancient technique of wax casting. The metal is cast into crafted moulds, which the tribals create themselves, in their furnaces and with their specialized tools.Practiced in West Bengal, Orissa and Madhya Pradesh, this metal craft finds different forms of expressions, each art form uniquely different in style and manifestation from the others.
Both styles are combined here into a base of utility, as simple as being a wall frame. Along with that, we aspire to adorn your wall with art, to accentuate your life with colour.  "
