Jyoti Handicrafts Industries

Jyoti Handicrafts Industries is situated on Delhi Road in Majhola. This part of the road is always busy with people and traffic moving between towns. We have a workshop where we do all our work on the different handicrafts. It’s a bit of a noisy place because there is always some sanding or hammering going on. The building is older and has that character you only get with time. We have piles of wood and metal in different corners depending on what we are working on that week. The dust is something you just get used to when you work in handicrafts. We have a small area in the front where we show some of what we’ve finished, but most of the action happens in the back. Working on Delhi Road means we see a lot of travelers passing through. The weather affects us quite a bit, especially when it gets humid, as it changes how the materials behave. We aren't a big factory, just a group of people who know how to make things with their hands. It’s a traditional way of working and we like it that way. We spend our days making sure the work is done right before things get packed up. It is a simple life, focused on the craft and the road outside our door. The Majhola area has been our home for quite some time now and we know the neighbors well.
