Handcrafted Wall Masks – Gambhira & Cheriyal Folk Art

Rooted in performance traditions and storytelling, handcrafted wall masks from India bring a bold and expressive character to any space. This collection features Gambhira masks from West Bengal and Cheriyal masks from Telangana—both deeply tied to folk theatre, ritual, and community narratives.

Gambhira masks are known for their dramatic expressions and symbolic forms, traditionally used in rural performances to depict mythological and social themes. Cheriyal masks, on the other hand, are shaped and painted in the distinctive style of Cheriyal scroll art, with vivid colours and finely detailed features that reflect stories passed down through generations.

Made using natural materials and hand-painted techniques, each mask is a unique piece of art—imperfect in the most meaningful way. Whether displayed as a standalone statement or as part of a gallery wall, these masks add depth, culture, and conversation to interiors. They also make for distinctive return gifts and corporate gifting options, offering something that is rooted, artistic, and memorable.

Explore these wall masks as part of our wider collection of wall decor and also different  crafts of India, alongside other folk art traditions that celebrate storytelling through form and colour.
