This floral papier mache heart ornament is painted all over with blossoms in true Kashmiri style. A papier mache heart hand-painted all over in red and coral blossoms with gold and olive leaves on a dark ground, hung from a golden cord.
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 floral papier mache heart ornament on the Christmas tree, a door handle, a window latch or a mirror, or tie it onto a present as a keepsake gift tag. It makes a sweet Valentine’s, anniversary or wedding favor gift that lasts for years.
