The products at Kamala are designed Batik wallets, shaded miniatures, and wall hangings very differently, though still retaining that charming, folksy touch. The kind of finishing you will notice in the products gives an idea about the level of craftsmanship.Terracotta, stone, and wood are the predominant materials in use. Serving cups, dishes, tissue cases, pen gantries, and lampshades are some of the items on display. Watch out for the paper present covers and bags that are stashed off in a corner. Diminutive paintings and figurines are a must buy. The textile division on the first-floor displays a compilation of stoles and saris from the different Indian States. Kamala signifies lotus in the language of Sanskrit.
