We are located at 131 Bhawani Singh Road, specifically in the Mahiharin Ka Rasta area. Rajasthan Hastkala has been around for a good bit now. This part of the city is full of history and old buildings, and our shop fits right in. We deal with traditional crafts, so the place is usually packed with various items made by local artisans. It’s not a polished gallery. There’s dust on the higher shelves and the floorboards creak a little when you walk on them. We spend a lot of time unpacking crates and making sure nothing got broken. It’s a lot of work to keep track of everything. The street outside is narrow and can get quite crowded with shoppers and rickshaws. Sometimes we just sit out front and watch the world go by when there aren't many customers. We aren't trying to be a big chain store. We just like the things we sell and the people we meet. Sometimes a customer will stay for an hour just talking about the old days. We don't have a big marketing plan or anything fancy. People find us because they’re walking through the rasta or someone told them about us. It’s a simple way to run a business. My hands are usually a bit dirty from handling the old crafts, and there’s always something that needs fixing or moving, but that’s just how it is.
