Indian fauna in traditional art
Animals occupy a central place in Indian art and symbolism. The elephant represents wisdom and good fortune, the peacock symbolizes beauty and pride, while the tiger embodies strength and courage. Our printing blocks capture the grace of these emblematic creatures through the finesse of traditional wood carving. Each animal is represented with respect and attention to detail, reflecting the cultural and spiritual importance it holds in Indian tradition.
Precision and engraving details
Each animal block is hand-carved with particular attention to details: peacock feathers, elephant tusks, tiger stripes, fish scales. Indian artisans master the art of creating reliefs allowing precise prints while respecting the proportions and aesthetics of each represented animal. This technical mastery transmitted from generation to generation guarantees exceptional quality stamps, capable of faithfully reproducing every anatomical detail.
