Rooted in Tribal Motifs and Folk Art
Mask art has long been a part of India’s ritual and performance culture—seen in tribal dances, village theatre, and festive parades. These masks often represent gods, spirits, or animal forms and are known for their bold designs and strong lines.
The Mask Face Coin Purse draws on this rich visual language. Its stylized facial features and vivid coloring mimic the masks used in Chhau dance, Bhuta Kola, or even Bengali folk theatre. With exaggerated eyes and symmetrical design, the purse is both playful and rooted in cultural expression.
Craftsmanship of Shantiniketan: A Legacy Since the 1940s
To create the Mask Face Coin Purse, artisans start with high-quality leather. After the purse shape is cut, the mask design is embossed entirely by hand, using brass tools . Then it is painted using eco-friendly, vegetable-based dyes. The piece is finished with a protective lacquer coating .
Each purse is stitched by hand and fitted with a durable zipper.
