Our Lippan mirrors are sure to bring some shine to up your homes!
Handmade in Banni, Kutch by one of the very few remaining Lippan Artists, our wooden mirror frames are a modern take on the traditional craft.

Lippan kaam traditionally is done on walls of the mud huts that the tribesmen live in. It is done on the exterior to reflect back the sharp sunlight and indoors to maximize the effect of a single candle as a light source. Over the years, as modern construction techniques have gained popularity, this gentle craft has been dying out. Our Lippan collection is our endeavor to help revive it.
