The master carver
Handles and animal heads
Forty years at the bench. Every horse, lion and falcon head leaves the workshop through his hands.
Chiniot, Punjab
A town that has carved wood for four hundred years
Chiniot's carvers built the woodwork of the Wazir Khan Mosque and furnished the courts that followed. Luxiqo Art works in the same lanes, with the same joints and the same jali patterns — now shipped to collectors who find us through a phone screen.

Three pairs of hands
The turner
Shafts and spirals
Turns each shaft on a foot-driven lathe so the spiral follows the grain instead of fighting it.

Questions
Before you commission
A standard handle takes 10–14 days. Deep-relief work like the cobra or falcon runs 3–4 weeks because the carving alone is 60–90 hours.
