Papier Mâché

Papier mâché in Kashmir typically involves a base of paper pulp mixed with adhesive materials like rice starch or gum. It is then meticulously molded and painted.

Common motifs include floral patterns, Persian calligraphy, and scenes from nature and folklore.

Papier mâché products, such as boxes, trays, and decorative items, are prized for their intricate designs and vibrant colors. They represent Kashmir's artistic finesse and cultural sophistication.

Crewel embroidery

Crewel embroidery has its roots in Kashmir, where it was historically known as "Kashmiri Kashida." It evolved as a way to embellish textiles with colorful wool threads, primarily on fine woolen fabrics like pashmina and cotton. The art form flourished under Mughal patronage in the 16th and 17th centuries, blending local craftsmanship with Persian influences.

Crewel embroidery primarily uses fine wool threads, known as crewel yarn and fabrics like twill or linen. The stitches used in crewel embroidery are varied, including satin stitch, chain stitch, and stem stitch, among others.

Common themes in crewel embroidery often include intricate floral designs inspired by nature, such as blooming flowers, leaves, and vines. Crewel embroidery holds significant cultural and artistic value. It is not only a means of embellishing textiles but also a form of artistic expression that reflects the region's aesthetic sensibilities and craftsmanship.

Jammu and Kashmir's artistic legacy is a testament to the skill and creativity of its master artists and craftsmen. Through their dedication, they preserve and promote the traditional art forms, ensuring that the artistic heritage of Jammu and Kashmir continues to thrive for generations to come.
