Craftsmanship & Origin
Pattachitra is a classical art form from Odisha, traditionally painted on cloth and palm leaves. The name comes from ‘Patta’ meaning cloth and ‘Chitra’ meaning picture. Over time, artisans have adapted this art form to decorate modern objects such as lanterns, trays, and other home décor items. Artists use fine brushes and natural dyes derived from plants, minerals, and organic materials to create detailed patterns and cultural motifs.
