Fine handpainted Tholu Bommalata leather wall clock. Tholu Bommalata is the shadow puppet theatre tradition of the state of Andhra Pradesh in India. Tholu bommalata literally means "the dance of leather puppets" (tholu – "leather" and bommalata – "puppet dance") is a 2000 year old craft and is one of the oldest form of performing arts.. The traditional process of crafting shadow puppets requires 30-40 days, from the procurement of leather to the completion of the product. Two other kinds of shadow puppetry are practiced in Andhra Pradesh, the Sutram Bommalata (String puppets) and the Koyya Bommalata(Wooden puppets). The leather puppets, because of their transparency and jewel like glow, are most popular. The puppets are mounted in the middle on a palm stem, extended to form a handle used to move the body of the puppet. The puppets are painted with hands using natural and poster colours. But apart from the translucency and vivid colours, what gives these puppets their brilliance, is the perforated designs drawn on the characters to depict jewellery. Once surrounded by colour and viewed against the light, they look like glowing jewels.

Leather Puppetry
Leather puppetry is a hallmark of Andhra Pradesh's arts and crafts. This form of craft is inseparable from the traditional folk and cultural expression of the state. This form of shadow puppet theatre, also known as Tollubommalu, is popular in some parts of Andhra Pradesh.
For those of you using a 44-inch wide fabric, this guide suggests measurements for a standard L Size. Think of this as your starting point. If you're working with different sizes or fabric widths, just adjust up or down accordingly. Hope this helps!
When it comes to how much fabric you'll need, it really depends on the design. We'd recommend having a chat with your designer or tailor before you order, just to be on the safe side.
I'm really happy with my order!
nice cotton and the colors are beautifull.
fast delivery, even with the custum stop.
and I also received a very nice personally note in my packet
The fabric is so soft and pure cotton.The color is so beautiful as shown in the picture. Received an additional beutiful scrunchie as gift. Thanks for this. Will buy more fabric from itokri in future..
I ordered a number of clothing items and kolhapuri chappals. I am very happy with the quality of the items and the service provided by the team for the order was very professional. I will be going back to itokri for more purchases. Thank you.
I am not reluctant to recomment iTokri on the basis of my experience. My order was shipped very carefully to UAE and I did receive it in good condition. Personal care was taken by the people at iTokri and this is my second order and experience with iTokri.
I am glad.
A wall clock can seem boring as a decorative item, but if chosen carefully, it can add more meaning and personality to your home decor. There are people who are passionate about it and put a lot of effort into finding the perfect watch to match your home decor. In most cases, when used wisely, it will add to the charm of your home.
There are many ways to tell someone you love them, and one of the timeless ways is to give a watch as a gift. Gifting a watch for an anniversary, housewarming, birthday, or other important event is a classic way to show someone your gratitude in life.
Handling of handmade clocks is potentially a major cause of damage to all heritage items. Handling of objects should be planned in advance and some precautions should be taken. Certain measures taken by watch handlers can prevent possible damage. The workplace must be clean and designed to ensure the safety of the watch. It should not be cluttered, bumped, bumped or moved unnecessarily, and the watch should be protected from theft.
Yes, All of our clocks collection is hand carved and hand painted using natural colouring.
Sunlight naturally contains ultraviolet light, so exposing sensitive pigments to direct sunlight can cause these sensitive pigments to fade. Also, some sensitive pigments may discolour when painting with acidic or basic cleaning solutions.
