Tradition and culture of a nation is the basis of its origin and existence. A nation, which can jealously guard its tradition and culture, will have an unstoppable progress and development in every sphere. India is known worldwide for its rich heritage. The above mentioned facts clearly support India’s history. The tradition and cultural history of India lie in its handicrafts and hand woven items. Numerous patterns of handworks and stitches of ancient times are still persisting in India. People can find an exposure of such works mainly in the antique Indian wall hangings.

Stitched images of horses, peacocks, elephants etc. of ancient days are found to be stitched in these wall hangings. These images of animals represent that time of India when India was ruled by the Rajput’s and the Sultans. Many wall hangings have got Indian tapestries beautifully stitched in them. The interior decoration of any house represents the taste of the residents of that house. One of the major aspects of interior decoration is decorating the walls of a house. If a person wants to give his/her a touch of Indian art then, he/she should opt for an Indian wall art by using the wall hangings of different size and shape with authentic embroidery. A variety of such art crafts are available in the store that sells authentic Indian stuffs.

Another area where India’s hand works get reflected is the Indian bedspread. Bedspreads have mythological pictures and images drawn or stitched in them. These bedspreads speak of India’s rich culture and devotion. These hand works are not only popular in India, but also worldwide. India has different patterns of embroidery of different names. All these patterns find their way in the Indian bedspreads. The heritage of India has been retained completely by these forms of art which now can be found in Indian wall hangings, pillow covers, cushions, brass cabinets and other stuff.

Among the Indian crafts, the crafts having the images of Indian Gods and Goddess are much more popular. India’s mythology has earned a place worldwide and thus, having crafts of gods and goddesses add a sense of being antique wherever they are used.

If anyone has got an irresistible liking of possessing such handcrafts and art, then he/she can find many websites that exclusively deals in rich cultural stuffs of ancient India.
