Syaahi Bangalori Silk Multicolor Vibrant Wall Hanging

What does the scene on this hanging show?

Many figures gathered under an arch, painted on a green and red ground as a single framed scene in the style of Kalamkari. It reads like a story panel, with lots to look at up close, and blue, orange and cream used for the figures and their clothes.

What is the border like?

The blue and red scroll border runs all the way round the scene, with a cream margin outside it. That full frame makes the hanging look like a complete painting, so it suits a spot where it will be seen straight on.

Could mine differ from what I see online?

A little. Colours can shift slightly between screens and displays, and because the piece is painted entirely by hand, there will be small irregularities in line and colour. Those differences are natural to handmade work and are part of what makes each hanging individual.

How should it be washed?

Gentle handwash only, washed separately from anything else. The scene is painted by hand on silk, so a careful, gentle wash on its own is all the care this piece calls for.

What exactly will I receive?

One multicolour hand-painted wall hanging on Bangalori silk, handcrafted at our Kalamkari unit in Mangalagiri by Master Artisan Jyothi. The package contains just the hanging, so you can display it in whichever way suits your wall.

Where should I hang it?

Since it is framed all round and full of figures, it works best where people can stand and look at it: a living room wall, a dining area, or the wall facing your entrance. The green and red are lively, so it brightens a plain or neutral room.
