Story & Heritage
A refined expression of sustainable luxury, this exquisite set of two handcrafted tea coasters embodies the timeless elegance of Indian artisanal heritage. Evoking the vibrant, architectural beauty of Jaipur, these pieces elevate an everyday homeware essential into a striking statement of regal hospitality. The vivid fuchsia Bandhej canvas serves as a rich, energetic backdrop for the captivating green onyx centerpiece, creating a bold and sophisticated visual contrast.

Craft Background
True luxury is defined by the meticulous, deliberate dedication of the maker. Purposefully distancing from the flat uniformity of mass-produced, machine-made tableware, this collection celebrates a beautiful harmony of ancestral Indian crafts. The foundation honors the iconic Bandhej tradition of Rajasthan, over which master artisans painstakingly hand-embroider delicate, meandering Zari pathways using shimmering metallic threads. At the heart of each coaster lies a genuine green onyx stone, meticulously secured with fine gold wire and encircled by delicate cream beads—a technique borrowed directly from heritage Indian jewelry making. Encased securely beneath glass, this multi-layered artwork ensures that your set remains an inherently unique, enduring treasure.
Care Instructions
• Usage: Designed for daily elegance. Safe for resting warm tea cups or chilled beverages directly on the protective glass surface.
• Cleaning: Gently wipe the glass top with a soft, slightly damp microfiber cloth after use to remove any condensation or spills. Use a dry cloth to maintain the outer frame.
• Maintenance: Do not submerge the coasters in water or place them in a dishwasher. Ensure that liquids do not seep beneath the frame edges, as trapped moisture can irreparably damage the delicate Bandhej silk base and the intricate hand-stitched embellishments.
