Handmade Kishangarh Classical Instrument (Tabla set & shahnai) Miniature Painting

Celebrate India’s musical soul with this intricate miniature painting from the Kishangarh School of Art, featuring a tabla set and shehnai rendered on vintage Jaipur State stamp paper. The tabla’s ornate dagga and dayan drums, adorned with floral carvings and tuning straps, sit beside a gracefully curved shehnai, its metallic surface gleaming with gold leaf accents. Crafted using natural stone pigments in earthy ochres, deep maroons, and ivory whites, the composition evokes the rhythm and melody of royal court performances.

Artistic Highlights:

• Symbolism: The tabla (rhythm) and shehnai (melody) represent harmony, celebration, and cultural unity.
• Technique: Ultra-fine squirrel-haired brushes define intricate details like the shehnai’s finger holes, tabla’s syahi (black spots), and swirling floral motifs.
• Materials: Mineral-based pigments, gold leaf, and antique paper for a timeless, textured finish.

Vastu Shastra Significance:

• Musical instruments symbolize flow of positive energy and creativity. Ideal for:
• West or northwest walls to enhance artistic pursuits and social harmony.
• Meditation spaces to invite serenity through symbolic naad (cosmic sound).
• The shehnai’s auspicious resonance attracts joy and marital bliss, while the tabla’s rhythm stabilizes focus.
