Embedded deeply in folk tradition, woodwork is a craft in which creativity of the kashmiri artisian has found unrestricted expression. From wooden toys,sandals,rice-measures and other untility articles to intricate lattice work and ornate cornices,columns,door and ceiling panels, facades and roof eaves, this creativity has covered a wide span from early times. However, the term wood carving in the present context almost invariably implies carved walnut wood-a material that abounds in Kashmir and for its fine grain and tint lends itself with natural grace to creation of attractively carved shapes. A variety of articles, both decorative and utility, ranging from smaller items like bowls,trays,cigarette boxes, wall plaques and table lamps to screens,tables, chairs, rug boxes, cabinets, bed-steads and other bigger items of furniture is crafted to walnut wood to cater of conemporary tastes and trends. Designs most widely employed are those inspired by local flora; the Chinar Leaf, iris,rose, bunch of grapes, water reed etc. while animal forms also find a place. The dragon from CHinese Turkistan and the latticed floral carving from Sassanid tradition are some of the imbibed influences in design that have enriched the craft. The kashmiri crafsman excels in intricate and ornate carvings, though of late this tendency is yielding place to more emphasis on functional aspect.
