Known as Nimbu-Mirchi (nimbu meaning lime and mirchi meaning chili), this traditional Indian charm is an indelible symbol of everyday Ilife in India.
Strings made with fresh limes and green chilies are often displayed outside homes, businesses, and vehicles as a symbol of protection from nazar (the evil eye) and as a reminder to welcome good energy and prosperity.
Our decorative cotton cloth Nimbu-Mirchi hanging captures the spirit and color of this beloved tradition in a lasting form.
Whether you grew up seeing these outside neighborhood shops, discovered them while traveling, or are encountering this tradition for the first time, this charm cheers up any space.
Hang it near an entryway, workspace, studio, or creative corner as a conversation piece and a celebration of Indian tradition.
Handmade in India.
