Hand Carved Kashmiri Photo Frame

Leaves have long been part of Indian ceremonies - from weddings to blessing your home. They're a symbol of purity, health and a connection to nature that brings the outdoors in.

These hand-carved, Kashmir-inspired frames echo that natural beauty. Each one takes hours of skilled work, with a rustic finish that makes every piece unique. Their subtle, shabby chic elegance recalls palace and temple décor, while their versatile design looks striking on a desk, bedside table or shelf, in portrait or landscape.

Beautifully hand carved from mango wood by Farooq from Saharanpur, India. The town is famous for its incredible woodwork. Here, origins of the craft can be traced back to the late 19th century.

Craftsmen like Farooq have perfected the art of patience and precision over many years of dedication, sharing their work with the rest of the world is one of the most rewarding aspects of their work.

“We have been producing home decor and lifestyle products for the last 50 years and are proud to share our designs with the rest of the world" - Farooq, maker.

Although the mango tree is best known for its delicious fruit, its wood has been used in India for over 4,000 years to construct palaces, temples and mosques thanks to its durability, water-repellent properties, beauty and strength.

Not only is mango wood sustainable, it generates extra income for farmers once the trees have stopped bearing fruit and provides an affordable and easy to work with the material for artisans.
