'Do Neel’ Hand Painted Tholu Wall Clock

The hand-painted Tholu Bommalata clock by Siva ji will fill your spaces with stories. Tholu Bommalata refers to the puppet theatre from Andhra Pradesh in which characters from the Ramayana and the Mahabharata were carefully hand painted and used in shadow puppet shows. The translucent nature of the material would impart the puppets their distinct “glow in the dark” effect. The tiny hand punched holes in the leather shade allow the light to shine through, in beautiful patterns. These colourful and versatile puppets are appealing accents in any setting, whether they are placed inside or outside your home, or during the day or night. Since these are handprinted on order, they take 7-10 days to be painted, dried and put together, to be shipped to you.
