If they had a website it could have a widget for uploading a custom design to add to a standard product (napkin ring, knife handle, pen, soap dish, statuette, picture frame/stand, etc).

Unsurprisingly, the video forgot to talk about all the obliteration by the British during their centuries of invasion. They essentially ravaged various monuments of India, including the Taj Mahal in the way that they barbarically pierced the precious gemstones and diamonds once inlayed by such artisans. Our parents tell us stories passed down over generations about the unreal luminescence of the Taj Mahal on a full moon light, when the diamonds glimmered in the moon light, that is until they flagrantly abscounded with all of it.

Where can people outside of India buy these? I would love some of these art in my home but don't want to buy it from sellers. Those in-between will pocket more money than the artists does. Any way to buy directly from the artists?

Why dont they sell online? They have phones and they could easily sell one of those tables for 20x what they are currently and the buyer would have to cover all shipping and handling

I think there is a mistake in the price. In the outlet I paid that price for something about 10% that size and 1/4 that quality of inlay

if that table was made and sold in the USA i wouldnt be surprised if it raked in something close to 80.000 usd. i mean wooden tables sometimes go for 40.000 dollars

no, for USA this table going around to 1,500 dollar according to this size including shipping charges, if you interested in this art to buy reach us out 😊😊

40,000 Rs. Is really less price for that table considering the craftsmanship ,detailing and hardwork it required.. they definitely need to get it sold at higher price. In malls a simple dining table which is made up of wood / glass / steel cost nearly about 30,000 Rs. at starting price.

Yes, but it's all depends of size design and much more
