Product Description
The exquisite beauty of daily life in Bhaktapur, Nepal in a small size for your wall! Made using the batik process, this beautiful scene will be a conversation starter in any room.
Nepal Leprosy Trust helps those who have suffered from leprosy or are disadvantaged in other ways. In Nepal, those afflicted with leprosy are ostracized and regarded as unclean. Little known to many, leprosy is curable. They are often left with nerve damage in their fingers, but the disease is gone. However, the stigma remains, so they have little hope of earning an income. NLT not only provides fair wages, but also offers medical benefits and educational opportunities they would otherwise not have access to. This card is made to order using a batik process, a time consuming artistry which requires multiple steps of dying and waxing.
- Made by hand in Nepal
- Batik on cotton
- Wall hanging measures 12-1/2" wide x 16-1/2" tall
- The art will be rolled up for shipment. Simply unroll and lay flat and art will easily flatten out again. If wrinkles occur, press between two white paper towels on high heat with a dry iron (no steam). We suggest framing with a colorful matting that coordinates with the colors in the design along with a simple black frame as that will make the batik pop.

Minor imperfections and variations are to be expected as a characteristic of the artistry. Please appreciate these individualities for what they are, a maker pouring their heart and soul into a unique and beautiful piece of work for you.
