Indian Arts & crafts in Central Cottage Industries Emporium

Ever wondered where you could get the big stone/metal/wood Indian deities like Ganesha, Nataraja Saraswati and Krishna? That exquisite Bankura silver elephant with glittering enamel-work? Those hand-crafted boxes of incense cones that aid yoga and meditation? It is here, it is here, it is here – at the Central Cottage Industries Emporium.
