Hand Carved Mango Wood Washed Cross Statue Or Wall Hanging.
The Mango Wood cross has been made by artisans from Saharanpur, a city that is home to some of India’s finest wood carvers. The thick forests all around provide ample wood needed for the woodcraft industry to thrive here. Dating back to about 400 years in Mughal period, some craftsmen from Kashmir settled in Saharanpur. They took to woodwork to earn their livings. Today, Saharanpur churns out some of the finest wooden offerings. The process of carving starts with logs of wood being cut into flat slabs using saws. Usually two men hold the wood firmly, ensuring that the resultant slabs are cut to perfection. These pieces are then marked with pencil and cut in different shapes and sizes in keeping with the design, and then handed over to carving artisans. Carving is done by hand using basic instruments like saws, chisels, knives etc. The skilled artisans produce astonishing results with these seemingly simple tools. The pieces are finally assembled and polished by trained artisans, revealing offerings that are rich in detail and steeped in tradition
