Magnetic
India-
the country that pulled Alexander the Great into its lap. A shimmering jewel
in the crown, and a unique blend of civilizations too.
The cultural
exuberance and composite tradition that marks his blend has found full
expression in heart-warming creations of master
craftspersons. These
creators extraordinaire, have inherited and honed ancestral skills to
perfection.

India
is also a country where time honoured tradition co-exists in perfect harmony
with the best of modernity. The five star hotels, shopping plazas and
emporia somewhat akin to the world, demonstrate all this very well.
The
vast inter-country link of airline services and rail network provides easy
access for shopping across the length and breadth of India
.
Whatever your taste - restrained
or exuberant, antique or modern, plain or patterned -
India
's bazaars, shops, stalls, markets and emporia will tempt as you have never
been tempted before.
Faced with yard upon yard
of richly colored silks and brocades, broad acres of gorgeous carpets and
rugs, an abundance of delicately painted 'Moghul' miniatures, a wealth of
intricately designed wooden and hand-painted papier-mâché boxes, to say
nothing of treasure chests of precious and semi-precious stones, marble
inlay work, brass statues, antiqe silver jewelry, delicate carvings in wood,
stone, and ivory, how do you come to an informed and rational choice !
Shopping
is a pleasure especially for those who have the knack for bargaining. But
then, bargaining is only done in open markets or markets places. Shopping
Arcades
, Govt. Showrooms or branded showrooms of reputed products have fixed prices
and the genuineness of products is guaranteed. During the Indian festive
season (September to December), avail discount from 5%
to a hefty 50%.
So go ahead, shop to your
heart’s delight and take home an exquisite, piece made in
India
, just for you.
