Crystal Handicraft

We are located at Rauf Colony, right near the New Chilkane Bus Stand. The name of our shop is Crystal Handicraft. Being so close to the bus stand means there are always people walking past and the sound of buses coming and going at all hours. We sell and display various handcrafted items. Most of the things we have are made by hand by different people, so they are not all exactly the same or perfect. We have shelves filled with decorative pieces and things people like to keep in their homes or give as gifts. The shop gets a lot of dust because of the traffic and buses outside, so we spend a lot of time wiping things down to keep the items looking good for the customers. It is a small business and we run it ourselves without any extra help. We have been in Rauf Colony for some time now and we know the regulars who pass by every morning on their way to work. Some people stop in while they are waiting for their bus just to look around and pass the time. We don't pressure anyone to buy anything; we just let them see the work. The items come from different artisans and we try to keep a variety of things on hand. It is interesting to see what people pick out. Some like the shiny things and others like the simple wooden pieces. We just enjoy being here.
