Afroza Ishaq designs a versatile catchall in the shape of a chinar leaf, pride of Kashmir. Known as boune to Kashmiris, the chinar tree was a favorite of Mughal royals, and a constant inspiration to artists and poets ever since. The catchall tray is expertly hand-carved of seasoned walnut wood, which only grows in this region of India.
