They are a delight not just to people who create music, but also to the ones who appreciate it. The antique instruments are almost on the verge of extinction due to a lack of artisans or the unavailability of raw materials. There are only a handful of artisans left in India who are still making them. Therefore, they are being procured and resorted in cooperation with regional communities and not being reproduced further. Thus, they are rarely sold in retail markets anywhere on the planet. We, however, can reproduce authentic instruments from our range repeatedly as a few craftsmen are still alive, Indigenous musical instruments from India are impeccable pieces. One can treasure them or gift them as a souvenir. We ensure the design, production, and delivery of these handcrafted artefacts.
