Crafted from earth, illuminated by light, and inspired by centuries-old artistry, this Kavi Terracotta Soy Candle celebrates the beauty of handmade traditions. Hand-poured using natural soy wax and non-toxic fragrance oils, it is housed in a handcrafted terracotta vessel adorned with motifs inspired by Kavi art. As the candle glows, it brings together heritage, craftsmanship, and mindful living in a truly unique creation.
Kavi + Teracotta
Long before art found its place in galleries, it lived on the walls of homes, temples, and everyday spaces. Inspired by Goa's centuries-old Kavi mural tradition, this piece carries forward an art form known for its intricate red-and-white designs crafted from natural materials. Paired with a handcrafted terracotta vessel from Uttar Pradesh—one of humanity's oldest craft traditions—it brings together two forms of artistry shaped by earth, imagination, and generations of skilled hands.
Artist
This piece is the result of a collaboration between terracotta artisans from Uttar Pradesh and artists inspired by Goa's Kavi tradition. While one craft transforms natural clay into handcrafted vessels using techniques refined over generations, the other draws from a centuries-old mural art form known for its intricate patterns and timeless beauty. Together, they create pieces that celebrate India's diverse craft heritage through innovation, collaboration, and craftsmanship.
"Clay gives us the canvas, art gives it a voice. Together,
they create something that carries the spirit of both
tradition and craftsmanship."
