About Regal Designs: Palaces & Elephants

The real challenge with drawing palaces and elephants isn't just the level of detail, it is the geometry. We carefully adapt these architectural structures to fit the curve of your arms and legs, ensuring the domes and arches do not warp or look stretched. Each line is placed so that whether you are standing or holding your hands together, the royal scene remains distinct, clear, and perfectly proportioned.

When you choose our Regal Figurative package, you aren't just getting mehndi, you are getting a custom canvas. We spend between four to six hours creating these designs because we treat your skin like paper.

The Royal Technique

We focus on 'barik kaam' (fine line work) to define the pillars, balcony railings (jharokhas), and the texture of the elephant’s skin. The palace motifs act as a beautiful backdrop for your personal story. We often integrate couple portraits, varmala scenes, or your wedding date within these architectural frames, making the entire piece cohesive rather than a collection of random images.

Quality That Lasts

All our bridal designs are created using triple-sifted organic henna powder mixed with natural eucalyptus and clove oils. We include a lemon-sugar sealant application at the end, which is crucial for deepening the stain. This ensures that the intricate palace and elephant details remain dark and vibrant for your wedding functions.

Collaborative Design

Because we are two artists working on you simultaneously, we can maintain symmetry across both hands effortlessly. If you have a specific palace, monument, or even a city skyline you love, tell us. We can sketch it out and adapt it into a royal style that is unique to you.

I’m Vinay, and with my partner Jashvant, we’ve made this 'Royal' style our signature. We are two kalakaars from Kurla who believe that your bridal mehndi should be as grand as the venue itself. We pour our heart into every arch and elephant, making sure your hands look like a piece of history.
