About woodcraft of Kishangarh
Kishangarh is known for its exquisite Indian furniture executed in wood. The furniture either carries the traditional miniature motifs or is embossed. The raw materials are locally available. The wood used is babool (acacia arabica), shisham (rosewood) or aam (mango), which is brought cut to size in the market. Usually, the work involves simple construction----turning, cutting and joining. The embossed look is provided to the product by using pointed tools that create a beautiful pattern on the surface. A varnished coat follows it to give a smooth finish to the product.
The main Indian furniture items, which are produced, include detachable chairs, stools, chowkis, low tables, sofas, large tables, and a variety of small boxes and containers.
*Please note that elephants are not the part of the furniture set.
