Pigments of Lapis, Saffron, and Pure Gold 

Kashmiri painting traditions represent a delicate synthesis of Persian illumination and regional mountain mysticism. Painted on handmade Wasli parchment using minerals ground from lapis lazuli, cinnabar, Malachite green, and real crushed gold leaf (warq), each composition reflects months of single-hair brushwork. Our Art & Archives division curates and preserves these historic pieces with documented provenance for private collectors worldwide.

  • Courtly & Poetic Narratives

  • Sacred Manuscripts & Calligraphy
