Whether used as a decorative planter, a quirky storage solution, or simply a striking conversation piece, this bucket adds a splash of color and culture to any space.

STORY BEHIND THIS CRAFT
Originating over a thousand years ago in Odisha, Pattachitra is one of India’s oldest and most revered traditional art forms. The name comes from the Sanskrit words “patta” (cloth) and “chitra” (picture), referring to intricately hand-painted scrolls that depicted mythological stories, folklore, and temple rituals, especially around Lord Jagannath of Puri.
Renowned for its bold lines, natural colors, and intricate detailing, Pattachitra was traditionally painted on cloth or palm leaves. Today, this heritage art has found new expression on functional items like aluminium buckets, kettles, and trays, bringing culture into everyday living.
Each piece is a tribute to Odisha’s vibrant artistic heritage—handcrafted by skilled artisans, preserving stories and traditions passed down through generations.
Today, Pattachitra art from Odisha is recognized globally for its authenticity and craftsmanship. Every piece tells a story—rich in culture, color, and character. By choosing a Pattachitra hand-painted item, you're not just buying decor; you're owning a piece of India's timeless artistic heritage.
Each Pattachitra-painted bucket undergoes an elaborate handcrafting process:
1. Surface Preparation – The aluminium bucket is cleaned, primed, and coated to ensure smooth painting.
2. Hand-Painting – Skilled artisans use fine natural brushes to depict intricate scenes with mythological deities, temple processions, folklore, and traditional motifs.
3. Detailing & Finishing – Every stroke is carefully designed using natural and acrylic colors, ensuring durability and vibrancy.
4. Sealing & Protection – A protective coat is applied to preserve the artwork for years.
