Production of Paper Mache Christmas Ornaments - India

On December 18,2025 papier-mâché artists in Srinagar ,Jammu and Kashmir create Christmas decorations as the holiday season approaches. However, the industry faces fresh hurdles after the US increases import duties. Artisans fear that the higher tariffs will decrease demand for their products, particularly Christmas ornaments, which make up a large part of exports. Kashmir’s papier-mâché items are sent to markets in the US, Europe, Australia, and the UAE. Exporters warn that these higher costs could harm both sales and the livelihoods of local artisans.(Photo by Danish Showkat/Eyepix group)
