AURA... the Magica is a novel design concept conceived to achieve the feel of the textures of real Pyramids with Fusion of the Modern Art Designs & luminance.

These mini pyramids will surely be the best collections of your Home, Office or Leisure places & viewers will be surprised to see the Magical illuminating designs emerging from a sand stone like structure, hence we named it "AURA...the Magica".

We proudly mention - AURA...the Magica is a pure Handmade work of ART, even the illuminating Designs are also rendered from the ancient art of Hand Block Printing by Rajasthani Artisans.

The 8 Designs


How AURA...the Magica is created - a brief experiance of our journey

Last year when we conceived the idea of making a Desk Lamp, the first thought was to create something unique that has the traditional value & Contemporary design but we never wanted to make a complex thing. After lots of research and experiments we decided to make a desk lamp as similar to Pyramids. We all know Pyramids has significance of Power, Knowledge, Design, Art & Perseverance. To make it more contemporary we changed the four sides to tetrahedron, the Triangle with all three sides and base of triangular shape.

The next was the looks, making it look as the real pyramid was quite a challenge. We don't wanted to make the steps at the exterior as it requires a larger area so we planed it to give the similar textures. Sand was the quickest remedy but it failed as it was difficult to match the granulates for each lamp & cleaning the sand for application was messy and not resulted as desirable so we concluded to make our own Sand with perfect granulates, Color shade & texture. Not every beach & sand stone is perfect to make sand texture similar to Great Pyramids, we thoroughly studied the colors, shades & granulates that matched the desired results. 

Our journey begins and after 5 months of tiring and rigorous travel to almost all the states in INDIA and collecting beach and sand stones from more than 38 rivers. With hundreds of experiments lastly we found our desired mix of stone granulates that gave us the textures closest to the Pyramids. The final granulates was a mix of seven river stones. The most amazing fact is the seven rivers stones we used was from the seven most sacred rivers of INDIA, The Ganga, Yamuna, Sarasvati, Godavari, Kaveri, Narmada & Shipra, we felt blessed and focused in completing the product. To add a shimmer effect to the texture we added a Natural Mica Stone  granulates found in state of Rajasthan to our sand mix.

To make it durable and sturdy we use the Polypropylene Thermo - Fibre Sheets as the basic body with MDF base and best class luminosity adjustable electronic devises with LED Bulbs. Its luminosity ranges from LUX1 to LUX5. The complete Lamp is coated with clear Non toxic latex coating. The "AURA" is born....


Everything was good enough to launch AURA to the world but we were not satisfied as there was something missing.... we promised ourselves to make it "NOVEL" the one of its kind like the Great Pyramids. We are creative people and wanted to create magic with the "AURA" making it more creative more beautiful and contemporary, Fusion of Magic was the answer, Fusion of "AURA" with Modern Art Graphic designs embedded within, which emerges only when the lamp is illuminated and the magic is created, so we named it "AURA...the Magica". The whole process of making "AURA....the Magica" is completely handmade .
