Showroom · Delhi
The Crafts Council of India's own shop, opened in Delhi in 2005, opposite the Hanuman Mandir. It sells handloom sarees, stoles and fabrics sourced from craftspeople the Council works with, at fair prices. Closed on Sundays. The stock changes with what craft groups send in, so it rewards repeat visits.
