Indian Wall Hangings Add a Touch of Classiness to Your Interiors

Posted by Eyesofindia on October 1st, 2015

Textured and colorful wallpapers and arty wall paint are some of the most conventional ways to improve the overall look and feel of a room. However, installation typically involves a lot of time and resources. Wall hangings can be a cheaper and easier alternative to a room renovation project. They allow you to showcase your personal style through your interiors. Indian wall hangings are some of the products that you should consider if you want to achieve a combination of unique and quirky styles for your room.

The stately homes and royal palaces of India have been traditionally adorned with Indian wall hangings. You can find a wide variety of these products online ranging from tapestries and quilts. Indian wall hangings come in different styles and colors to suit your taste. Patchwork and sun and moon tapestries can add a touch of bohemian to your interiors. Embroidered wall hangings and tapestries with designs like an elephant, gods and goddesses, and Mandala allow you to recreate the opulent look of royal mansions. There are ethnic and hippie designs that can infuse a quirky and homey look and feel to your room, too.

Some styles of Indian wall hangings are versatile and can be used as colorful bedspreads. Modern sun and moon tapestries are examples of these. The sun and moon are crucial icons in Hindu mythology. The moon (Chandra) rules emotion, and the sun (Surya) rules the intellect, and at the same time, it is believed to be a source of truth. These mythological characters are depicted in colorful and hippie-style tapestries that combine contemporary motifs and traditional eastern patterns to create a gorgeous look on your wall or on your bed or sofa. They create a welcoming and warmer look and feel to your interiors, too.

Embroidered Indian wall hangings can add a luxurious finishing touch to your interiors. They usually depict animals and flowers with intricate thread work. The best ones are entirely made by hand, so they add opulence to any your room. Peacocks, horses, elephants, common Indian patterns, and flowers make wonderful and colorful patterns on Indian wall hangings, which can also be used as table runners, bedspreads, throws, tablecloths, and wall art.

Many of these Indian wall hangings can be purchased online. Look for a store that specializes in handpicking and sourcing a wide range of items from artisans and craftsmen in cities and villages in India. This type of business aims to deliver original, creatively made, and unique works of art from genuine Indian craftsmen and artists.
