Yes, the prices shown above are inclusive of taxes. Shipping is also free, so the amount displayed here will be the final amount you pay at checkout."

At The Bellisia, we meticulously source high-quality materials that reflect timeless luxury and craftsmanship.

Afsana is meticulously handcrafted using traditional Kashmiri papier mache. A sturdy base of paper pulp, often mixed with rice paste, is molded into the regal elephant form. Layers of thin paper are adhered, smoothed, and then prepared for intricate hand-painted detailing with vibrant, natural pigments. A final varnish seals the artwork, enhancing its beauty and longevity, a testament to this enduring craft.

We believe in pieces that not only look beautiful but are built to last.

Gently dust with a soft, dry cloth. Protect from water and harsh chemicals to preserve the delicate painted surface and the papier mache material. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
