Why give a spice box four petals?

In Indian traditions, the four cardinal directions are associated with four guardians:
Indra in the east, Yama in the south, Varuna in the west and Kubera in the north.

The lotus, too, has long been used in Indian art and sacred geometry to organise a world around a centre.

Chaturkamal brings those ideas together. Four petals gather around the masala dabba at its heart, the everyday keeper of spice, flavour and nourishment.

Devdutt Pattanaik’s writing offers another way to see that centre: the same spices, in different hands and proportions, become the distinct taste of a family.

Four directions. Four petals. One centre that tastes like home.

Nourishment sits at the heart of Chaturkamal. And it travels further. Every Chaturkamal helps fund 10 meals through The Plated Project’s Art Against Hunger programme.
