Product details

  • An exploration of the timeless beauty of Indian design through 200 classic objects
  • The book explores the elements that make Indian design so special, including the varied manufacturing and decorating techniques of the country’s incredibly skilled craftsmen, highly specialized object designs that have been refined over centuries, and ongoing responses to nature, technology, and necessity
  • The objects were chosen for their enduring quality and beauty, and their integral connection to Indian culture
  • Rather than following a chronological order or concentrating on the (often anonymous) designers, this book separates the objects into abstract categories anchored by Hindi words chosen to illuminate how each object fits into the lives of Indians
  • Format

    • Hardback
      205 x 270 mm
      304 pages
      200 colour illustrations
