Inspiration
Tansen, the jewel of Emperor Akbar’s court, whose music could light lamps and summon rain, when asked about his divine melody’s source; he spoke of watching a tribal Dhokra craftsman pour molten brass. ‘The rhythm of metal meeting mold,’ he said, ‘was the universe’s first song.’
This timeless connection between craft and melody inspires Badya, where Dhokra’s ancient lost-wax artistry meets musical storytelling. Each piece features a handcrafted Dhokra musician, frozen in a moment of pure artistic devotion – body swaying with an unheard rhythm. Using techniques passed down through 4,000 years, our master artisans shape each figure through the intricate lost-wax process, creating not just wall accents, but resonant pieces of living heritage.
Whether mounted in your living room, study, or meditation space, Badya transforms your walls into stages where art and music eternally dance together, carrying the warmth of tribal craftsmanship and the soul of India’s musical traditions.
