A bridge between art, nature, and history, carrying the spirit of wilderness.
Once a language of chase and splendour, now reimagined through craft and texture — alive with restraint and discovery.

In Tilfi’s Shikargah Tales, the motif is both woven and wrought. Through thread, metal, and form, the forest’s presence quietly endures, while becoming a medium that reflects Banaras’ rich artistry and the endless possibilities of exploration.

A continuing dialogue between craft and imagination, where the old narrative of pursuit yields to a new rhythm, a balance of presence and pause, curiosity and reverence. What emerges is not a literal retelling, but an impression: layers of influence distilled into handwoven form as traces of the Banarasi spirit.

In the Camouflage series, through the inventive use of the Zari Vasket technique, patterns dissolve into terrains of grass, stone and snow. Stylised motifs transition into naturalistic terrains, forests unfold with lifelike depth, animals appear in moments of stillness, and the landscape gently asserts its presence.

Camouflage becomes a lens through which beauty reveals itself in quiet, unassuming places. Patterns blur, converge, and conceal, transforming the weave into a landscape of quiet revelations for those who look closely.

Shikargah moves from textile to repoussé metalwork, where its motifs gain sculptural depth. What began as woven imagery becomes contour and relief, allowing the wild to inhabit objects of both art and purpose.

Emerging wholly not as an homage or reinvention alone, but as a negotiation between the two.
Each form feels both useful and contemplative, bearing the quiet marks of making, expressing strength and grace.

In their expression, tradition and imagination meet once again, blurring the line between art and design, and transforming
brass into a celebration of creation itself. Shikargah is both a memory and continuity of Banarasi craft sensibilities.
