Lippan art is a centuries-old mud craft from India, traditionally used to decorate the walls of mud huts. Artisans create intricate patterns using raised clay lines and small mirrors, often depicting village life and geometric motifs. The designs were typically painted white to reflect heat and help keep homes cool, while the mirrors were believed to ward off the evil eye.

In this workshop, you’ll create your own detailed clay and mirror design using a frame, clay, stencils and a selection of mirror shapes. Choose from a variety of frame styles and explore a wide range of mirror designs to personalise your piece.

Bring a miniature artwork to life and craft a beautiful decorative piece for your home.
