Premium Quality: Fishes Are Hand-Painted In The Intricate Bengal Alpona Style On Black Handmade Paper Using Fabric Paint From None Other Than Alpona Maestro Sudhi Ranjan Mukherjee.
Product Design: Alpona Is The Art Of Drawing Designs Using A Paste Of Ground Rice To Enrich Everyday Spaces - The Entrance To The House, The Floor Beneath A Deity, The Seat Of The Bride, A Pot Of Holy Water, And An Arati Platter.
Cultural Heritage: Its Origin Is Lost In The Mists Of Time Though Ajitcoomar Mookerjee, In His 1939 Book Folk Art Of Bengal, Says Its Forms And Motifs Bear A Close Resemblance To The Heritage Of Ancient Art And Culture To Which The Indus Valley Civilisation Belongs.
Scholarly Legacy: Abanindranath Tagore - Possibly The First Person To Make An Academic Study Of The Alpona - Wrote In His Banglar Broto That Some Of The Motifs Seem To Be Hieroglyphic In Nature.
