History of Paper Mache: Paper Mache is a delicate decorative art, born in Persia, originally and brought to Kashmir by a Kashmiri Prince who spent years in a prison at Samarkand in Central Asia. The art was further encouraged by Mughal emperors that came from Uzbekistan in Central Asia in the 15th and 16th century and ruled India for nearly 200-300 years. The Mughal emperors traveled to Kashmir, a serene and beautiful valley with a lot of beauty to inspire. The surroundings harnessed the creativity.
