For Deepavali, VS Mani & Co. wanted a gift box that felt festive—but rooted. We turned to the Thalaiyatti Bommai(nodding doll), a symbol of Tamil heritage and celebration, placing it at the heart of the design.
Surrounded by vibrant patterns and colours inspired by Tanjore art, the box blended nostalgia with elegance. From blind UV textures to gold foiling, every detail was designed to elevate tradition into a premium gifting experience.
The box became more than packaging—it became a keepsake.
It was also featured on Packaging of the World, celebrated for its cultural storytelling and design craft.
