STORY BEHIND THIS CRAFT

The stone craft of Odisha is one of India’s oldest and most revered art forms—a living tradition that dates back over a thousand years. Deeply intertwined with the state’s spiritual and architectural legacy, this craft gained prominence during the Kalinga dynasty, when artisans sculpted some of India’s most iconic temples, including the world-famous Konark Sun Temple, Lingaraj Temple, and Jagannath Temple of Puri.

These awe-inspiring monuments were not just feats of architecture, but showcases of masterful stone carving, where every surface told a story—from divine deities to celestial dancers, and intricate floral motifs. What you see in our stone craft products today is a continuation of the very same techniques and traditions passed down through generations.

Odisha’s stone carvers, locally known as “Shilpakars”, still use simple hand tools like chisels and hammers, working patiently for days—sometimes weeks—to bring life to cold stone. The most commonly used stones are soapstone, sandstone, and granite, chosen for their fine grain and carving potential.

Unlike factory-made decor, each handcrafted piece reflects not only the artisan’s skill but also their spiritual connection to the work. These aren’t just carvings—they’re offerings of devotion, expressions of mythology, and embodiments of cultural memory.

Today, this craft is practiced primarily in heritage-rich towns like Pipili, Bhubaneswar, and Puri, with many artisan families preserving the legacy through community workshops and government-recognized clusters.

 

 

Dust Regularly | Use a soft, dry cloth or a gentle brush to remove surface dust and debris.

Avoid Harsh Cleaners | Do not use chemical-based cleaning products, bleach, or abrasives, as they can damage the stone surface.

Wipe Gently | For light cleaning, use a slightly damp cloth. Make sure the stone is dried thoroughly after wiping.

Keep Away from Moisture | Avoid placing stone pieces in damp or humid areas to prevent staining or surface wear.

Do Not Soak | Never immerse in water; prolonged moisture exposure can weaken the structure over time.

Handle with Care | Though durable, natural stone can chip or crack if dropped or roughly handled.

Store Safely | When not on display, wrap in soft cloth or bubble wrap and store in a dry, cool place.

Avoid Direct Sunlight | Excessive sun exposure may cause certain softer stones like soapstone to fade over time.
