The Craft: Tholu Bommalata by a Master

This lamp is a miniature masterpiece of Tholu Bommalata (Leather Shadow Art), brought to life by State Awardee Artist Raghavendra.



The artisan painstakingly treats ethically sourced goat leather to achieve a canvas-like translucency. He then uses traditional bamboo pens to hand-paint the vivid floral designs using natural vegetal dyes. The result is a durable piece of functional art that preserves the rich heritage of Andhra Pradesh puppetry in a modern home decor format.

This translucent leather painting art form from Andhra Pradesh is used to make puppets for the popular shadow-puppet theatre tradition of Andhra Pradesh -‘Tholu Bommalata’- literally meaning “the dance of leather dolls’. An ancient practice, wandering entertainers have for centuries disseminated the knowledge of Hindu epics and local folk tales to the remotest corners of the region, through this art form and tradition.

The raw materials used are Goat hide and sheepskin and the colours used are derived from vegetables dyes. Creating small holes inside the decorative patterns enhances the attraction of the items, which is done using a pogaru (chisel). The painted piece is dried in sunlight over two to three days. Hindu epics like Ramayana and Mahabharata inspire artisans to create these beautiful items in a wide range of shapes, sizes and utility varying from paintings to lamp shades or puppets as a vibrant and unique work of art to liven up a wall or a corner. Lampshades are created using a mould and most of them are based on mythological figures.
