Indian Handicrafts Industry & Exports

Last Updated: August 2012

The story of Indian handicrafts dates back to one of the oldest civilizations of the world. Representing beauty, dignity, form and style, handicrafts from India are objects d'art.

The sheer versatility of the various materials used to create handcrafted gift items makes them truly unique. Materials range from wood, stone, metal, grass, papier mache, and glass, to cane bamboo, textiles, clay, terracotta and ceramic — everything goes into the creation of a masterpiece.

The industry covers a wide range of lifestyle and utility products, such as:

  • House ware
  • Decorative items and gifts
  • Home textiles
  • Furnishings
  • Floor coverings
  • Furniture
  • Home accessories
  • Cane products, bamboo and eco-friendly products
  • Christmas decorations
  • Candles and incense sticks
  • Fashion jewellery
  • Accessories and bags
