SHAHPURA HOUSE

The sophistication of high class hospitality and excellence of local craftsmanship was matched by the architect. As the two existing wings of the property were extensively and elaborately decorated with wall frescos and for decoration in the third wing client wanted a continuation of the heritage style but with less of painting and frescos. So, stone work was used in its most fascinating forms with various types of art work i.e. inlay, engraving, embossing and overlay. No words can convey an idea of the marvelous spectacle of well and graciously and artistically applied wealth which has harnessed to make a combination of natural and contrived beauty, open for the enjoyment of all the guests and cannot be seen at such terms anywhere.
