Lac Bangles: The artists who specialize in making ‘Lac Bangles’ are referred to as Lakharas and are known for their master craftsmanship.  Lac is a natural resin obtained from the insect ‘Kerria Lacca’ that is often called as nature’s natural plastic due to its flexible and durable nature.  The Lakharas create intricate designs and embellishments that look classy and royal. Made with coal and fire, the procedure of making these bangles is truly a visual treat.

Rajasthani Pottery: As one of the oldest handicrafts of Rajasthan, a piece of earthenware pottery is a must have. The artists or ‘Khumars’ as they are popularly called, are known for their meticulous and phenomenal creations.

Mehendi Designs: The Marwari Mehendi design is a strong reflection of the Rajasthani culture. The designs are intricate with a heavy focus on leaf motifs and symmetrical patterns.

Customers can indulge in any of these traditional art forms and walk away with souvenirs that bring out the essence of rural Rajasthan. As a part of the festival, Kesariya has also curated a special menu that includes thirst quenchers and summer specialities of the desert region.  A seven-course menu that includes dishes like Aloo Matar, mangodi ki subzi, Jodhpuri kofta, khatti meethi kadhi, bajra roti, ram keechdi has been specially curated.
