The Art of Indian Mehndi designs tradition

Art of Indian Mehndi design and its origins

The word Mehndi comes from a Sanskrit word Mendhika. This is definitely an art form. But traditionally it was an intrinsic part of Vedic customs. Both haldi and mehndi took prime place in traditional Indian customs. But in olden days mehndi designs were not as progressive as they are today. At that time, Mehndi designs were symbolic in nature. For example, a sun or moon, a bird or fire or lamp etc. were the traditional designs that used to be presented on hands and feet. The overall idea of mehndi designs was to represent internal awakening.

Even though mehndi as an art of temporary skin decoration started in India it took no time to spread to Bangladesh, Pakistan, Maldives and Arab. In fact, today even the European and Western countries have accepted this as an art form to glorify and decorate skin. In India, mehndi is not just limited to be applied during weddings. It is applied during various festive occasions like Karva chauth, Diwali, Durga Puja, Teej, Bhaidooj, Eid and so on. 

In olden days mehndi was made at home and a thin stick or fingers were used to apply it on hands and foot. Today, we have readymade mehndi cones and there are so many great artists who create superb designs for you. It won’t be difficult today to find good mehndii artists. This is because we have many of them. There are very talented mehndi artists who apply intricate designs of mehndi to brides before the wedding event. In some places of India this system is also followed for bride grooms. In fact, before wedding a special event or party is organized, known as Mehndi event or Mehndi party. 

Even in Gulf countries a day before wedding celebration of Henna night is organized. This custom has spread even in Middle East Arabic mehndi design and Africa. In fact, it is believed that African tribes have better idea about mehndi since ages because even in their tradition Henna was used as body decorating theme for creation of some symbols on the body.

The art of mehndi design in India is therefore quite old and even though it is old, it is still popular. The designs available these days are so rich and beautiful that no one can escape without getting impressed. The modern designs have a combination of designs like leaf, mango, groom’s or brides name hidden in the design, peacock, swastika, kumbh and many such symbols that make any event graceful and elegant. Initially when ready-made mehndi cones were not available and it was made at home, people used to apply mehndi in hands and foot and then they used to keep it overnight. But now when ready-made cones are available, mehndi is worn only for around 3-4 hours and result is awesome. It is believed that if hands are not put in water then the color would even be darker in forthcoming days. Thus, brides to be are told not to put hands in water. 

We already have so many mehndi patterns and designs. We are sure as time passes; there would be more discoveries and inventions in this particular art form. Please do comment below if you loved our designs.
