Description: This book describes some of the traditional designs and motifs created by master-craftsmen for the ornamental modes found in architecture, textiles, crafts, jewellery, and interior decoration in India. The author felt that while there are great designs in India, it was difficult to keep track of them. The author thus hoped that even if a small representation of these designs could be collected and presented in one volume, it would be immensely useful. The book also attempts to showcase the contribution made by Indian craftsmen. The need for such a book was also welcomed in light of the growing interest in the handicrafts of India.
