One of the items immediately associable with Indian décor is patachitra painting. Patachitra painting is very simply described as scroll painting done on cloths. Hailed as the traditional painting of Odhisa, India, Patachitra paintings have adorned many a homes across the country and are eternally associated with class and refined tastes. The colors used in this form of painting are completely natural made by the Oriya painters or Chitrakaras. This style of painting remains the oldest types of painting in the state.

Palm leaf engravings or paintings, once again, make for one of most ancient crafts of the world. Also known as Talpatachitras, palm leaf engraving is an art which has reached new heights today as far as homedécor is concerned.

Anybody looking to render a completely Indian look to his or her abode first turns to palm leaf paintings. The ethnic art comprising inscriptions (made on palm leaves) adds a whole lot of flexibility to your choices. Though the palm leaves are generally cut into standard sizes, you can always aim for a custom look by choosing shapes that are a little quirky and unique in their own ways.

Dhokra is a metallurgy based art which has been a traditional favorite of homemakers as well. At the heart of Dhokra craft is brass-ware. Have you seen those beautiful brass showpieces – tribal couples, elephants, candle stands and bells? They generally make for a regular feature at the trade fairs – no matter in which part of India you are.

Make sure you are including these décor items in your home while setting up your dream “Indian” home.
