On clothing, one can find wonderful examples of traditional crafts like Lambadi from Tamil Nadu and Kasuti, a rare and vanishing embroidery from Dharwad in Karnataka. For those with an interest in architecture or interior design, there will be a variety of intriguingly created and curated items, including rugs, leather lamps, and home temples.
