Stained glass designer Katayun Saklat’s painting

Stained glass designer Katayun Saklat’s paintings, with their disconcerting details, give a dark twist to sweet nostalgia At first glance, Katayun Saklat is just another kindly, elderly lady with a thatch of grey hair. But she is much more than that. She is one of the most accomplished designers of stained glass in India, with her work included in several public and private collections.

Kapas Hera

Jashan at home in memory of my mother- Parsi Zoroastrians believe that fire as an element is pure representing gods divine light & energy. We believe in Good Thoughts Good Words Good Deeds. The ceremony is simple lasts for around 45 minutes...lot of similarities with the Hindu Diwali pooja held yesterday - the fire, fruit, flowers. Scholars believe that the two religions share lots of commonalities. #parsi #zoroastrian #zoroastrianism #firetemple #fire #worship #prayers #jashan #goodthoughts #goodwords #gooddeeds #faith #religion #religious #god #goodvibes #good #goodlife #delhiparsis #parsisinindia #parsifood #parsigara

Peabody Essex Museum

And it's a wrap!!

Creating sari looks inspired by art pieces from the Herwitz collection in the new South Asian Galleries at the Peabody Essex Museum! Interpreting the beautiful art and presenting it in a sari form. Art and the sari - both are things I enjoy immensely and this opportunity made me feel like a kid in a candy store! With such a beautiful smorgasbord to choose from, it was difficult to narrow it down to just 5. We somehow managed and these are the 5 sari looks + how to videos I created to celebrate the opening of the new South Asian galleries at the PEM.

.
In the coming week, I will be writing a detailed outfit post about each look.

I cannot thank you enough Siddhartha @siddharthavshah and PEM @peabodyessexmuseum for this wonderful opportunity and making #artmeetsthesari happen. Thank you @bethseyeview and the team at PEM for your kind support. And finally, many many congratulations on the opening of the new galleries!!! Here's hoping that everything will be alright with world again and I will be able to come see all the gorgeous art at PEM very soon!

Love, hugs and fairydust!!

Cars are in the Parsi DNA since the day automobile

Cars are in the Parsi DNA since the day automobiles were invented, or so it seems ! It is no surprise that some of the top automobile restorers, journalists, organizers and most importantly owners and collectors are Parsis.

One such gentleman is Perseus Bandrawalla who organized the 2020 Mercedes Benz Classic Car Rally to end 2020.

Perseus writes….

From a parsi angle we have a number of well known Parsi families that participate in the event year on year. Some of the star cars this year belonged to Mr. Behram Dubash a 300 Adenauer and the Mistry family’s 220S Cabriolet which is believed to be an engagement present for Mrs. Mistry back in the day. Other entries included ad guy Rayomand Patell, collector Sharoukh Engineer, lawyer Purazar Fouzdar, Sam Katgar partner at Jeena and Neville Poonawalla -owner of Rage Motorsport amongst others.

In addition, I’ve been curator of the rally since the first edition in 2014. The event is organised by Autocar India. Autocar is the world’s oldest magazine and Mercedes is the oldest car manufacturer in the world. This year’s event was held at the Taj Lands End. Indian Hotels is probably the oldest hotel chain in India too. The publisher and Editor of Autocar India is Hormazd Sorabjee, – son of Soli Sorabjee. I am a freelance automobile consultant and columnist and also work closely with other automobile brands.
