Craftsmanship & Origin
Pattachitra is a traditional painting style from Odisha that dates back several centuries. The word “Pattachitra” comes from ‘Patta’ meaning cloth and ‘Chitra’ meaning picture. While traditionally painted on cloth, the art form is also adapted to wooden objects such as trays and decorative items.
Artisans use natural dyes derived from minerals, plants, and organic sources, and paint fine details with handmade brushes. The designs often depict mythological stories, floral patterns, and cultural motifs.
