Provenance
Gulal (गुलाल) is the fine red powder at the centre of Holi — more specific than abeer, which names any festival colour; gulal is the red of devotion and spring, pressed onto foreheads in greeting, thrown in clouds across gathered people. Made traditionally from the dried flowers of the palash (Butea monosperma), its name derives from the Persian gul: flower. The colour and the flower share the same root.
The ‘Gulal’ trivets carry that vocabulary onto the table: a multicolour surface that holds several tones simultaneously, the way a Holi gathering does. Set beneath a serving dish or a steaming pot, they bring the same quality of joyful, considered colour to the everyday meal — not ceremonially, but as part of the habit of living well.
Disclaimer
- These trivets are handcrafted in wood with a printed surface. Variations in tone and colour across a set are a natural feature of the process.
- Minor differences in print registration or surface texture should be understood as the signature of individual craft, not a defect.
