Bring the beauty of Kashmir’s famed artistry to the holiday season with this Hand-painted Badloo Wood Nativity Set. Featuring five delicately carved figures, this set is adorned with the intricate floral motifs and bold colors characteristic of Kashmiri hand-painting, a craft passed down through generations.
Artisans in Kashmir have long been celebrated for their detailed work on papier-mâché and wood. Using locally available badloo wood, they skillfully shape each figure, then hand-paint them with fine brushes in traditional patterns inspired by the valley’s natural beauty—lush gardens, blooming chinar trees, and vibrant blossoms. Each nativity set reflects both devotion and cultural heritage, bringing a story of resilience and artistry from the Himalayan region to homes around the world.
