Most visitors to India, especially the ones from the western countries like shopping in Janpath and Fabindia – also Jaipur is a great shopping destination for those looking for semiprecious and precious stones. But as you say, it’s a vast topic and you cannot cover them all.

Dear Col. Nair,
I do agree on missing out on the most beautiful of the states in India, but as I mentioned, India being so huge and diverse, it is just impossible to highlight the wonderful creations of each state. I would surely make amends in my future posts about God’s own country.
Thanks for your valued comment.

Very good article. Particularly the first para is so true.Even we (Indians) ourselves keep wondering what NOT to buy, when visiting some handicraft fair. Our India is interesting in every way.

Nice article. You have missed out my state, Kerala, which produces most of the spices, kathakali heads, ivory work,etc . As you mentioned India is a very vast country with infinite variety. The population of India is twice that of the whole of Europe.
