Jet Black & Gold Madhubani Coffee and Tea Kullad Set (Set of 4)
Where Ancient Art Meets Everyday Rituals
A Living Tradition
This striking terracotta kullad (traditional Indian drinking vessel) set brings the sacred art of Madhubani to your tea time. Hand-painted by Kishore's artisan collective using techniques dating back to the Ramayana era, each piece features:
- Sacred color palette: Jet black (symbolizing the cosmic void) with gold accents (divine prosperity)
- Raw terracotta rim: Left unglazed to maintain the earthy connection
- 165ml capacity: Perfect for serving masala chai or traditional beverages
Artisan's Touch
✔ Each kullad takes 3 days to complete - from clay shaping to intricate brushwork
✔ Natural variations in the black pigment occur as it's mixed with tamarind seed gum
✔ Gold detailing applied with squirrel-hair brushes for precision
Product Highlights
