About Himalayan Handicrafts – Art & Craft in North Delhi
Himalayan Handicrafts is tucked away on the third floor over in G. R. D. Nagar. It’s not the easiest place to find if you aren’t looking for it. Stacks of things are everywhere, including rugs, carvings, and some metalwork. Most of the items come from up north, from people we’ve known for a long time. The space feels a bit cramped because new shipments arrive before we have a place to put them. You can smell the wood and the wool as soon as you walk in. Honestly, it’s a bit dusty. We try to keep it tidy, but with all these handmade items, there’s always something to move or organize. We aren't a big showroom with bright lights and salesmen. It’s just us here, checking the quality of what comes in and packing things up for people who like this kind of work. When the sun hits the windows in the afternoon, you can see all the small details on the blankets. It’s quiet mostly, except when we’re unpacking crates or talking about the latest delivery. We talk to the makers regularly to see what they’re working on. It’s interesting to see how different people make things by hand. We just provide a place for those items to sit until they go to a new home. It’s a simple setup with no big reception area. Just a couple of desks and a lot of stock. We like it that way.
