Papier Mache:
Papier Mache is among the most renowned crafts of Kashmir. The art was born in Persia, and brought to Kashmir in the 15th century.The creation of a paper mache objects can be divided into two distinct categories - the 'sakhtsazi' (making the object) and the 'naqashi' (painting the surface).
It is in the 'naqashi' that that the Kashmiri artisans add their distinct identity to this art form. The colours for painting designs on the surface are obtained by grinding and soaking various vegetable mineral dyes in pigment or stone form.The paper Mache objects produced in Kashmir today vary from Christmas ornaments to coasters and include boxes of every imaginable size and shape.
There are several varieties of carving:
Deep carving, usually with dragon or lotus flower motifs
Shallow carving, done all over the flat surface
Open or lattice work, usually depicting the Chinar motif
Semi-carving, which is a thin panel along the rim of a surface, with perhaps a center motif. The advantage of semi-carving is that it allows the grain of the wood to be displayed, together with the carver's skill. Wax polishing brings out the inherent sheen of walnut wood, and is by far the most popular finish.
