Sri Bhalaji Arts And Crafts

At number 5 on Sowrastra Big Street, you’ll find Sri Bhalaji Arts And Crafts. The street itself is very old and has that specific smell of dust and history that you only find in these parts of town. We’ve been in this building for quite a while now. The front door is usually kept open to let a bit of a breeze in, but mostly it just lets in the noise of the street vendors and the cows passing by. Our shelves are filled with all kinds of items, from small wooden carvings to larger pieces that take two people to lift safely. We don't have a fancy catalog or a website that works properly half the time. Most of our business happens right here on the floor, talking to people and showing them what we have in stock. The lighting inside is a bit dim, so we often have to take things out to the sidewalk so people can see the details in the actual sunlight. It’s a slow-paced kind of life here, which suits us just fine. We don't have meetings about growth or strategy. We just look at what’s selling and try to get more of that for the next week. Sometimes the rain leaks in a little near the back window, but we just move the boxes and carry on with our day. It’s a simple shop and we like the people who stop by.
