Tanjore Art Plate.
German Silver Made art plate
The Tanjore Art Plate is a magnificent representation of South India’s classical art tradition, originating from the culturally rich town of Thanjavur (Tanjore) in Tamil Nadu. These plates are meticulously handcrafted by skilled artisans who follow the traditional Tanjore painting techniques, but instead of canvas or wood panels, they adapt the art onto a round decorative plate format.
Each Tanjore art plate typically features Hindu deities like Lord Ganesha, Goddess Lakshmi, Saraswati, or scenes from mythology. The central figure is embossed and adorned with 22K gold foil, giving it a luxurious, glowing appearance. The artwork is further enriched with vibrant enamel paints and semi-precious stones that add depth, texture, and grandeur.
Made using durable materials such as wood, brass, or a composite base, the plates are available in various sizes and often come with a wooden frame or a stand, making them ideal for wall-hanging or tabletop décor. The background colours—usually rich reds, royal blues, and deep greens—create a dramatic contrast that highlights the golden embellishments.
Every element on the plate, from the delicate floral borders to the intricate jewellery on the deities, is painted and placed with care, showcasing the artisan’s precision and spiritual devotion. The raised, three-dimensional effect gives the plate a sculptural quality, making it stand out as both an artistic and devotional centrepiece.
Tanjore art plates are not just decorative pieces—they are symbols of prosperity, spirituality, and cultural heritage. Owning one is like holding a piece of sacred tradition, preserved through generations. These plates are perfect for festive decorations, temple rooms, pooja spaces, or as auspicious gifts for weddings, housewarmings, or religious celebrations.
Each Tanjore art plate is a unique collector’s item, blending sacred imagery with timeless artistry. Its rich detailing, spiritual significance, and luxurious finish make it a regal addition to any space, reflecting the grandeur of Indian art and devotion.
