Apart from other handicraft items, Rajasthan is also
known for its wood crafts. Wood, sometimes plain often painted, is used
to make everything from furniture to artifacts. While the furniture
ranges from the made-as old that is such a range all over the world, its
contemporary variants include chairs with painted backs, camel-hide
stools, marble-top tables and carved cabinets.
Wooden artifacts include a range of animals-horses, elephants, parrots.
All are beautifully painted. Besides animals, wooden artifacts also
include boxes, chests snuff boxes and other interesting paraphernalia
including dancing figurines and dwarpals or guardians of the doors.
