Handpainted Sohrai Painting with Natural Sand Colours

Does it arrive framed?

Only if the listing says so. Most traditional paintings — Madhubani, Pattachitra, Warli and the like — are sold unframed on paper or cloth so you can frame them to suit your wall.

How do I stop it fading?

Hang away from direct sunlight and damp. Natural pigments are beautiful but light-sensitive; glass framing with a UV filter helps considerably for a piece you want to keep for decades.

How do I clean it?

Dust very lightly with a dry, soft brush. Never use water or cleaning solutions on natural pigment work.

Is it hand-painted or a print?

Every painting we list is hand-painted by the artisan named on the listing. That is why no two are ever quite identical.

Why does my piece look slightly different from the photo?

Every item is handmade, so small variations in colour, size, texture and finish are natural. Screen calibration also affects how colours appear. These differences are a sign the piece was made by hand.
