These colorful papier mache crescent moon ornaments bring playful bands of color to festive décor. A graduated set of three crescent moons in papier mache, hand-painted with colourful bands and tiny flowers on a black base, strung on a golden thread with pink tassels.
Handmade in Kashmir
Kashmiri papier mache is made the traditional way: paper pulp is molded by hand, dried, smoothed and then painted freehand by skilled naqash artists. A coat of lacquer gives the glossy finish and protects the painting. No two pieces are exactly alike, so expect small, charming variations from the photos.
How to Display It
Hang your colorful papier mache crescent moon ornaments in a window, on a wall hook or across a doorway for Ramadan and Eid décor, or add them to the Christmas tree. They also make a dreamy decoration for a child’s room and a thoughtful festive gift.
