The Shinghalia is a traditional vermilion container used by the Khampti tribe of Arunachal Pradesh. This wooden container, crafted using intricate carving techniques, features a domed lid and is designed to store vermilion (sindoor), a substance of deep cultural and religious significance in many tribal and Hindu traditions.

The Khampti tribe of Arunachal Pradesh's Namsai district observes the tenets of Theravada Buddhism, and its artifacts reflect a uniqueness acquiring from different Buddhist and indigenous influences. The Shinghalia, which is principally ritualistic, ceremonial, and traditional, is not just for keeping an auspicious and happy vermilion for sanctified rites, but also for marriage customs wherein it represents the auspiciousness of marriage for a lady.

The Shinghalia is another immense tribute to the Khampti ability in woodworking, with the artisans making these delicately carved containers out of wood indigenous to the region. Designs on these containers are often represented in ornamental patterns chasing nature, Buddhist motifs, and traditional designs. Being made of wood ensures long durability, while its dome-shaped lid keeps the vermillion safe from both moisture and dust.
