What is the kalasha in this design?

The kalasha is the auspicious pot, here topped with a coconut and mango leaves, set before the goddess for the vratham.

Can I ask for a lamp motif instead?

Yes. Type the motif you want. The nine pictures here are the nine shown, and a new motif is a request, not a promised result.

Which finish suits a puja floor?

Coloured powder has the crispest lines for a floor that will be walked near. Flower petals are traditional but wilt within a day or two.

Varalakshmi rangoli for the vratham, drawn before the kalasha by women in Karnataka, Andhra and Tamil Nadu. The three designs are a brass kalasha with a coconut and mango leaves, a pink lotus with footprints walking towards it, and a pot spilling gold coins between two elephants. Each comes in rich coloured powder, in flower petals and in dot work on a dark floor. A different motif, such as a goddess face, can be typed in as a request.

About toile

This page is a showcase and a starting point: nine samples already rendered, three readings of the pack crossed with three styles, each shown at the size and ratio it was made for. Take any of them further on the wall with a few words, or ask for all nine again under your own direction; a sign-in keeps what you make, and it is free while Toile is new. The recipe behind each sample — the subject, the style, the palette, the framing — travels with the image rather than staying private to the render: it is in the alt text of every sample and in the page's own structured data, so a search engine reads the same handles a person would.
