About the Artwork +

A masterful craftsman, Javed Hassan's Usta Kala intricately weaves a rich tapestry of artistic heritage. Derived from the Persian word "ustad," signifying mastery, Usta art encompass a diverse array of techniques, with the gold embossing work emerging as the most popular. This artistry once graced walls, ceilings, glass, wood, marble, and camel leather artifacts, bearing witness to its versatility. During the British era, it found a new canvas in lightweight materials, such as camel leather pots, designed for carrying oils and fragrances. Today, Usta Kala adorns various home decor and lifestyle products, featuring bases like wood and marble. Originating from diverse regions and art traditions, this art form has journeyed to India, gifting us with timeless beauty. Gold embossing, intricate patterns, and a rich history make this craft a piece of cultural fusion.

    Usta Kala


    Usta Art originated from Iran, flourished in Mughal durbars, and merged with Indian culture. The then-king of Bikaner, Raja Rai Singh, welcomed nawab Usta artists to his domain. Bikaner's Usta artists created a new branch of Usta art. Their descendants brought it to life in the shape of Bikaner's magnificent Junagarh Fort's Anoop palace, Chandra palace, Karan palace, and Phool Mahal. The art is still alive and well, and Usta artisans may be seen performing the trade that their forefathers taught them.
