Description

A chequerboard border, a pattern found on Harappan pots and game boards.

Drawn from the Indus Valley (Sindhu) civilisation of about 2600 to 1900 BCE, whose potters painted pipal leaves, fish scales, chequers and intersecting circles on their jars. We redraw those motifs as bold layers that still read clearly from across a room. Wide and low, the classic shape for the centre of a flat door.

With your name

Shown here with “Bhatia”. Type your own name and an optional second line when you order, in English, Hindi, Marathi, Tamil, Malayalam, Telugu, Kannada, Urdu or another script. We WhatsApp you a drawing within a day and cut only after you approve it.
