Colour, pattern and light in conversation

Two traditions, one atelier. Athangudi tiles shape rhythm underfoot, while Tanjore gold relief gathers light on the wall. Chosen individually or together, they bring colour, pattern, light and living heritage into everyday spaces.

01  Colour and Rhythm

Athangudi Handmade Tiles

A floor sets the rhythm of the room

Handmade in Tamil Nadu, Athangudi tiles hold the warmth of pigment, geometry, and gentle variation. Patterns are selected around mood, movement, borders, and the way a room welcomes people.

02  Light and Ornament

Tanjore Gold Relief Paintings

Gold relief gives light a place to gather

Each bespoke painting is made to order as a one-of-a-kind work. Depending on the chosen direction, raised relief, genuine 22K or 24K gold, coloured glass, semi-precious stones, and precious stones when desired are composed with hand-finished detail around its subject, scale, palette, and atmosphere.
