Tradition
Lippan Art: A Desert Masterpiece
January 20, 2026
By Sumegha
Originating from the salt marshes of Kutch, Lippan art (or Mud and Mirror work) is a traditional mural craft that has graced the walls of bhungas (mud huts) for centuries. The shimmering mirrors against the earthy clay create a mesmerizing play of light. At Sumegha Handmades, we take this ancient desert craft and reimagine it for modern urban spaces. Our circular canvases and contemporary color palettes ensure that this heritage art form finds its place in the most minimalist of homes, bringing with it a touch of rustic royalty.
