Check
out our Mysore Art collection. Beautiful wooden
marquetry art pieces for decorating your walls.
These priceless pieces
are adorned with the traditional wooden marquetry to make your
walls come to life.
This art is at least few centuries old handicraft patronized by various rulers of Mysore. The craft technique involves the gluing of different layers of wood together to form the final picture. Various colored woods are creatively used to achieve different patterns. Ivory was used for the white pattern which is now done with plastic. To prevent deforestation, this wood is now sanctioned only by the Forest Department of Karnataka state, India.
But what is so unique about the wooden marquetry art work? Well to know that you should actually hold one in your hand and get into the details. It is not a painting!!! It is similar to a jigsaw puzzle assembled from different pieces. 'Awesome' is the first word that strikes to you when you hold this art work. There are less than .5% in this world who actually know about this art form.
