Pipili Appliqué Umbrella Lampshade Jhumar
Handcrafted in the artisan village of Pipili in Odisha, this appliqué lampshade jhumar is a vibrant expression of traditional Indian textile artistry.
Made using the iconic Pipili appliqué technique, each piece is hand stitched using layered fabrics, often repurposed from old sarees. This brings together sustainability and craftsmanship while preserving a heritage practiced for generations. The intricate patterns, mirror work, and bold colors give each piece a strong visual identity.
The standout feature is its retractable umbrella style design. It can open into a full lampshade form or close into a compact hanging piece, making it both functional and visually unique.
Available in multiple forms including bell and fish inspired shapes, each piece is one of a kind. Colors and patterns vary based on fabric availability, ensuring no two pieces are exactly alike.
Ideal for use as a hanging lampshade, festive jhumar, or statement decor element in homes, cafes, and cultural spaces.
Sourced directly from artisan communities, this piece supports traditional livelihoods and helps preserve authentic Indian craft traditions.
