Story & Heritage
A refined expression of sustainable luxury, this exquisite set of two handcrafted silk coasters embodies the timeless elegance of Indian artisanal heritage. Designed to elevate the everyday ritual of tea or coffee, these pieces beautifully merge functional home accessories with sophisticated high art. The deep, lustrous canvas of pure black silk serves as a dramatic backdrop for the luminous silver paisley and floral motifs, offering a touch of nocturnal elegance to your dining or coffee table. Conceived for the conscious connoisseur, this limited-edition collection seamlessly bridges the opulence of traditional Eastern adornment with the sleek, monochromatic aesthetics favored in contemporary European interiors.
Craft Background
True luxury is defined by the meticulous, deliberate dedication of the maker. Purposefully distancing from the flat, uninspired uniformity of mass-produced, machine-made tableware, this collection celebrates a breathtaking harmony of ancestral Indian embellishment techniques. Master artisans painstakingly hand-embroider the silk canvas using shimmering silver Zari threads and individually placed metallic beads, creating a brilliant, three-dimensional tactile relief that catches the ambient light. The subtle integration of black ribbon work adds further depth and intricate texture to the floral arrangement. Encased securely beneath protective 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, coffee mugs, or chilled beverages directly on the sturdy, protective glass surface.
• Cleaning: Gently wipe the glass top with a soft, slightly damp microfiber cloth after use to remove any condensation, rings, or spills. Use a dry cloth to maintain the matte finish of the black 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 silk base and compromise the intricate hand-stitched Zari and beadwork.
