About
Lightweight wooden toys and furniture carved from locally sourced Ponniki wood, finished with a distinctive golden lacquer and hand-painted with folk motifs.
Did you know? Nirmal craftsmen developed their own golden lacquer finish from a natural resin base — the same treatment used on toys is applied to full-sized furniture pieces, giving both a matching glossy, golden sheen.
